I have a 2002 Azonic DS-1 Evolution and I just tried to fit some 2002 Shimano XT disc brakes. Unfortunately, this is impossible because the rotor fouls the caliper with the wheel any more than about 1/2" from the front of the dropout slot. This means I can't run the gearing I want, and I can't remove the wheel without removing the brake caliper.
Any helpful suggestions gratefully received. I don't really want to add an adapter and a larger than standard disc, but I'd happily fit a 2004 XT or XTR caliper if it would solve the problem.
