The rotors came in. Unfortunately I have had barely enough time to get them installed, much less ride them. Also my wifey needed a seat slightly comfier than her stock seat on the diamondback so my Comfy Century ride cf1 was sacrificed and she is loving it. So Ill have to find another seat or swap my other one back before I can burn these in. (Anyone got a Sworks Power lying around?)
But I did take pics of the rotors and got them installed before I had to leave town for 2 weeks.
In the package
These brakes have a warning stating they cannot take the abuse that we dish out to our mountain bikes. Im assuming its because of the rivets that help with the "float" Should be fine for road and gravel... (as he goes down in a ball of flames)
Close up of said rivets
Side by side with the TRP discs that cane off the bike. The quality seems pretty decent. The new discs weigh a few grams lighter (117g for the TRP vs 110g)
