Has anyone fitted 220mm SRAM rotors to their 2020 Levo Expert with the factory fitted Fox 36 forks?

The Fox website states I can install rotors up to 203mm but does anyone know if fitting the larger rotors would cause damage to the forks under heavy braking?

my buddy has 220m maguras on his levo. Fox 36 Fork came from my 2020 sworks enduro. No issues so far. Don't use a shimano adaptor which will place the caliper at 223mm instead of 220mm.

Hi, best you can do is put the Magura Rotors 220 / 203 with Shimano Trail Brakes !!!!

All the rest is a pure joke :)

Stay safe !

Got to admit they do look beasty. I've got a set of Hope v4's with 220mm sat in the cupboard so you've got me thinking about ripping out the SRAM now... Maybe the right choice is to sell the Hopes and grab a set of Maguras if the prices work.

?? With SRAM we had not one customer happy in last 8 years, over 800 bikers ??

Sram is ( “giving shitt company” ) ???

Shimano BrakeSet is No. 1 for manitence and durability ! Always good workings ??

All I’m telling here is my 30 years workshop experience however ride experiences ??✌?

We tested the Magura rotors 0,15 - 0,2mm more tickness than Shimano rotors so the levers response of trail shimano brakes is
also a bit better....

cheers
