Looks good - but I don't like the idea of changing my brake pads 4 times a year with all this wavey disk nonsense...

go though a set of front pads in under 2,000 miles with a trackday thrown in lol

Look ok them, never really liked the look of wavey disks though would much rather a set of PFM disks

Brake discs used to be very functional and lasted for years them slowly they became more of a consumable now it would appear they are a fashion item.


Lovely looking but they are bound to be very hard on pads.................

mmm gorgeous mate, looking at the way they are cut i doubt they will get through pads like waveys, if the cut was the other way round (i'm assuming they are handed) then they will eat pads in no time.

Mine arent like that but ive dont about 2K miles on my waveys and the pads still have loads of meat left on them, not sure what sort of pads they are tho, they came supplied with the disks and were unbranded so assume they are made by ABE themselves. Having said that, my pads arent stopping 200kg+ of bike.
