You'll also need a external bottom bracket tool for the DT adaptor..

or a cassette removal/install socket with the Shimano adaptor...

If drivers and riders spent more time worrying about their responsibilities than their rights then roads would be far safer.

SRAM force 22 hydro disc.

Which centre lock discs would you guys recommend to suit?
I'd recomment Shimano RT-64 or 67 with SRAM brakes; I don't know how the road calipers go, but the SRAM/Avid MTB calipers foul on the longer alloy spider arms of RT-81/98/99 rotors. The 60-series spider arms are shorter, so will give a bit more clearance. Don't use SRAM/Avid rotors (they do offer Centrelock options, but don't make a big thing of it) unless you have a liking for funky noises.
Seems all city agree with you.

SRAM doesn't seem to list these on their site anymore so I assume they are old stock?

I contacted sram and they said they still produce these centre lock rotors.

Are they any good good or are they to be avoided?

those rotors wont be listed anymore as they are being superseded by the sram centreline rotors... i dont think they have released the 2 piece centreline rotors yet though.

i've actually just bought a HSX rotor, but in 6 bolt not centrelock. i love the HS1/HSX rotors though, they offer solid performance. i've got a pair on every set of wheels.

All ordered. The wait continues. 4 weeks. Very envious of my wife's new bike. Already have ideas for getting one myself ;) will evaluate her bike once it arrives first though, of course.

Be ready for the call from UPS when it arrives. They'll process the GST & Customs Clearance for you. You pay it over the phone and you'll get delivery the following day.

Didn't you have to order a special build from Lynskey, or did Bike Pro do that for you?

In the end my wife choose the sportive disc so we didn't need the custom frame.

Cool, I am considering a Sportive next year so I can do some long distance riding. Haven't decided on Disc or Calipers, so I'd love to get some feedback on the bike when it's arrived.
