shaper Posted June 30, 2017 Share Only if your 500 is damaged? Sent from my Redmi Note 3 using TapatalkThat is my understanding ... better to call navworld and speak to them to confirm. If so, drive over your 500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalahari Vegmot Posted June 30, 2017 Share some 203mm rotors .. now to only find the matching adapters to fit the frame ... oh, they were only R50 a rotor on the CWC site.How are they? Also saw them, but the quality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eugene Brown Posted June 30, 2017 Share How are they? Also saw them, but the quality?I have the 180mm version on my Merida 650B, and they work with my fat arse strapped in. Done about 1200km and wear seems normal, together with no noticeable decrease in braking performance vs OEM Shimano 180mm non-IceTecs. No complaints.

T-Bob Posted June 30, 2017 Share Still laugh about the last time I took my bike to a local Mowbray LBS and got quizzed by the ex-pro why I needed a 200+ rotor and it was 180 only in their store as it was too hard to adjust the brakes to fit.

And this is the same ex pro whose team had a brake failure on one of the descents at a local bike race cos they chose small lightweight rotors....
