Nitro Posted February 6, 2009 Share I have them on 2 of my bikes. Perfect braking in my opinion......and look the business too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndreZA Posted February 6, 2009 Share Why do you want them, for the stopping power or the look? It's made from steel so it should work like any other make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slackerbitch Posted February 6, 2009 Share they did not stay true.they lost their gold coating after day 1.they squeeked and touched the pads because they are no good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YETI575 Posted February 6, 2009 Share have standard XT rotors which have lots of surface area which means lots of contact with the pad. Wind cutters look like this and only wiegh 88g. Not much braking surface here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rad006 Posted February 6, 2009 Share I would say Bling but then again they did lead me to going head over heels so I think they work when they want to....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slackerbitch Posted February 6, 2009 Share kcnc.wind slutters.all a crock of crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted February 6, 2009 Share They don't have much braking surface when they are standing still but when they are rotating it's almost a solid piece of steel. I could be talking crap, I don't know. Why change from XT? For the weight? if you want lightweight go for alu ones. They will not last long but they are lighter. http://www.poshbikes.com/images_new/products/poshspecial2006_16_l.jpg http://www.poshbikes.com/product.php?id=255 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyatt Earp Posted February 6, 2009 Share I use the Alligator rotors with Carbone Lorraine VRX pads and it is a deadly combination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
