Hi All,

A while ago I bought some brakes in a bit of a hurry (as I had an expiring CRC voucher) to replace the awfully noisy Avid ones. They are Shimano XT M785 brakes, but I didn't order any discs at the time. I've now totally confused about what discs to buy to go with them. As the new brakes will be in the same place, it is correct to assume that if I buy disks the same size that it will go together, or is that naive?! The discs are 180F 160R with 6 bolt holes.

So will I be OK if I buy XTRT76 rotors? http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/shimano-xt-rt76-6-bolt-disc-rotor/rp-prod39007

Or is it more complicated?!

    You can use your existing rotors. No need to change them unless they are warped (or you just fancy new ones).

    Sorry should have said that they are both worn and warped!

    Any 6 bolt rotors will work, as long as they are the right size.

    It's that simple.
