   | Lightened rear rotor. So does this actually do anything for you stopping ability? Obviously it won't perform better then say an Wave rotor. I could maybe see it keeps the rotor cooler for long extended use, but not many use their rear brake that much anyways. I'm just curious about these things.  That, and I'm kinda bored.Last edited by ReaperAZ : 07-08-2005 at 11:59 AM. | |

| Re: Lightened rear rotor. Lighter weight and marginally less stopping power, that's all there is to it. |

| Re: Lightened rear rotor. I figured the less rotating mass wouldn't make a huge difference cause it's probably only a matter of ounces with the rotor. |

| Re: Lightened rear rotor. Ounces adds up to pounds on a trackbike!  Last edited by K9inAZ : 07-08-2005 at 8:39 PM. |
