Levo Gen 2 Upsize brake rotor

[Paramaniac]

I'm looking at upsizing my rotor from the 203mm to 220mm rotor. I can't seam to find any info as to the adaptor bracket size that is needed for the conversion?

Has anyone done this and if so what bracket size is required? What brand rotor did you choose?

thanks.

If you have forks with 180mm Post mount you need +40mm PM adapter.

I just got done upgrading to a sram 220 rotor on the front of my levo. But I had to use a +63 PM adapter from Galfer because I have a 2017 yari with 160 post mounts.

I have a 220 on the front of my 2019 Levo. It and sintered pads make all the difference on my descents

I only have two small rides with this set up and I have noticed an improvement. I’m looking forward to doing some big mountain rides where I can really test it. One thing is for sure it is a lot easier to get it to stand up on its nose and for me that’s better.

I have the 220 rotor. I'm fat (250lbs), so yeah, I notice a significant difference in braking performance on the descents with the 220mm rotor.

Did the upgrade to 220. It makes one finger braking easier especially on long descends. Good bang for the buck rather than getting new brakes for 3 to 4 times the cost.
