Trying to fit an XTR caliper to my inbred project. It's an IS mount, with a Superstar single speed hub
The disc seems to be too far inboard on the frame for the caliper to fit. On my regular geared MTB, the disc is 15mm inboard from the inside edge of the IS caliper mount on the frame. On this inbred, it's 20mm, and the caliper won't align with the disc.
a) what's going on? Is the hub to a different standard?
b) can I just get longer bolts and 5mm spacers, or is that asking for sheared bolts / dental bills?thanks

I looked up the reg of the GT40, turns out it's not an original but one of these https://www.capeadvancedvehicles.com . Have to say it looked very very nice for a replica.

Some epic twat trying to ride no-handed all the way up TCR this evening. Not only is it very skettchy for peds stepping out behind traffic now they've made it 2-way, this massive idiot is filtering no-handed up the inside and outside. Then another cyclist pulls out, slightly in front of him sure but not too bad, and this oaf starts shouting at him. Other cyclist just ignored it, at the next light no-hands starts mouthing off again and I told him he was the "only dangerous fucker on this road" he says "I do what I want you fat fuck" and rides off no handed flipping the double bird. At that point I let him ride off to his destiny :/

Might do, I quite want to use my blingy XTRs though :)
according to this https://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/inbred-sliding-drop-out-disc-question/ it does need spacers, seems a bit sketchy to me
