Dear fellow members, please help on this little brake survey for my project. Thank you so much.

Please copy and paste at your reply post and edit from there. Thank you! :love:
You can select more than one.

Thank you so much bro~

The light weight discs proposed are up to 60% lighter than the conventional ones. It can save up to 10kgs and more.

For example, you throw off everything including dieting yourself and you reach 820kg machine and your target it 800kg, this lightweight discs might help you to reach your target. This is just an example, please give a little time to feedback~

Thank you!

[*]Make up purposes
[*]Gain braking performance[/LIST]
discs with original casted holes/slots and holes "drilled" after casting are two different things.

Also, being "light" wouldnt be my only consideration though it certainly is a major plus point.
Is it a true "floating disc"?
Can it dissipate heat fast enough? Going too light would make me worried about it's heat capacitance.

now this is light.
