Hi! I just bought hope trial disc brakes (try-all) with 160mm rotor and .... IT DOES NOT fit in my monty 231! Why? Could You explain me what to do...? Smaller rotor or some kind of adopter?

Maybe becouse you got the front 160mm caliper???
160mm rear on monty = 180mm front caliper. The koxx bikes uses the front calipers on the rear and that probobly why you got the wrong one.
edit: A +20mm hope adaptor would work though, but thats soo gay.

Yea the monty rear disk mount is meant for a 7 inch disk i believe, i used and avid 8" bb7 and my disk still slipped, so I don't think a 6 inch would be powerful enough and I am not too sure even about a 7 inch rotor??
And just as a side note, make sure your rotor isn't 5mm too big. I had a 185mm rear disk on a bike and I could not get ther rear wheel on because the rotor was touching the caliper before the wheel was completely inserted. I had to get a 180mm rear disk, worked fantastically.

Looks like you had a front caliper, which would mean that you'd need a 140mm rotor in the rear.
And to make things even worse: I think that Try All rotor is 155mm in diameter (If that's the same one that is used on the Hydroxx).
