Picked up a 200mm rotor to throw on the bike

Currently has a 180mm rotor direct mount on Lyrik

assume I need a 20mm adapter like the one below or can I use shimano adapters on my Code R brakes?

I use a 20mm formula adapter on my shimano saint front brake and a Hayes adapter on the rear saint. I’m pretty sure it’s all interchangeable. The only issue that’s made me go with an on brand option was Hope 203 rotor to hope hope brake.  I didn’t want to run spacers so I opted for the hope adapter.

Ok, makes sense, spacers are not my first choice, prefer the adapter

Sometimes the shape of the caliper interferes with the adapter when mixing brands so may as well just bolt it on and find out!
