new discs

Hey peoples

Just bought new front and rear discs for the ttr. Bought a spare set of rims and needed new bearings, discs and sprocket. 

 

Decided to get chinese discs :)

 

Wouldn't normally and I am not a fan of super cheap poor quality stuff form China, but for $33AU (each disc) inc postage to Australia I thought what the hell. Well they turned up in about 5 days! How do they even make money on this stuff!

So they seemed good to look at....... rear one is fine, works fine, front one however is warped or not machined totally flat. Can't tell by eye but it causes the brake to pulsate. Bought a metal gear one in Aus for $120 and all good.

Thought I'd post up in case anyone else is thinking of doing the same. I'd say don't bother.

 

Cheers Leigh.

Yeah I wonder how long the rear one will last. I am dubious.

Brian needs to move to Australia, excellent prices for a lot of his stuff!
