I've got the TRP one piece stamped rotors that came with the hy/rd brakes. The front one is a hair out of true. Ive been slowly trying to true it since Ive installed the rotor and its pretty darn close but still ever slightly touches the pad every rotation. Much more noticeable in the rain and dirt. Drives me nutz.

I just bought 2 generic "floating" (2 piece) rotors from Amazon for 24$ (12$ each) Ill have them in 2 days and curious to see if these cheap chinese rotors are going to suck.

I really just wanted rotors that are true. Ive got about 1300-1800 feet of climbing on my daily ride. Im sure that the rotors warm up a little on my rides but Ive never lasered them to check temps.

Im sure the floating rotors will stay just as cool as the stamped rotors. The big deal will be if these cheapos come in true. If so, Ill use them up and see if there is a noticeable difference. If they are not true, Ill send them back and spend more money.
