Question

I know these have been beaten to death over the years, but I heard a rumour that there's a lightweight rotor available for the Prodrive Alcon brakes.

I'm getting to the point where I need to replace my rotors, so if anyone's got any info... The search function is down at the mo.

Thanks.

Excuse my ignorance - are rotors discs?

If they are then there was a posting a while back from 'Trouser' is it? and there was a company doing 2 part lightweight discs.

I think Dave is right, but there's not been anything categorical posted on here that I've seen. I think the plan was to to fit AP Racing discs with alloy bells, but not sure. There was also a rumour that Prodrive were going down this route with their own discs (rotors!) to combat warping under extreme conditions.

2 piece discs / rotors for the Alcon kit. ( I've been looking back as going to get the Alcon kit myself in the next few weeks.... )

Great! Thanks chaps. Sorry, I should've posted in proper english. I've been living here in the US for a while now, and I'm trying hard to not use words like 'trunk' and 'hood'. I'm tellin' ya it's killin' me!
