Hi all, I can't work out what's going on and feel pretty dumb as it must be obvious. So I have these new ltwoo calipers on a gravel fork, they come with mounts to for two size rotors, 140mm, 160mm. My rotor is 160mm, see photo. If I use the 160 mount, the pads are hardly overlapping the rotor (last photo I think) and there is no way to get them closer. If I install the 140 mount, the caliper binds the rotor. I just cannot see how to get the 160 working. Please tell me what's up.

I see you’re using a fork with a flip-chip, could this be also used to adjust the position of your front wheel, and therefore the rotor position in the caliper? You may need to use the 160mm adapter, and swap the flip chip around to reduce the gap. However, that’s just an idea, and perhaps not the best solution as it’ll change your handling very slightly.
Tried flipping the adaptors (not the calipers themselves) around (so the UP is actually pointing down and see if it mounts any better?
You could add some washers in the “140” position.
