Just browsing on ebay to see these beasts:

It says the rotor weighs 100grams, and that got me wondering....is that light? Does anyone know roughly what my juicy avid 5 160mm rotors weigh?

nicklouse

Avids weights are on thier webby.

give me a moment. oh and which disc do you have? as there are a few patterns.

benneally

that one :oops:

nicklouse

Opps just checked the parts manual and it does not have weights give me a mo longer.

nicklouse

looks like th polygon so about 115g.

hmmm is 30 grams worht £40... i think not! thanks

depends how the rotor itself performs really. Reviews i read of the juicy 5 with those rotors were like Marmite, some love em and some say they cause judder and a crap braking performance.

Have you thought about the G2 clean sweep rotor as an option? 106g without bolts for the 160mm G2 according to weight weenies. The polygon rotor is 115.3 on their site again without bolts.
