New disc rotors for giant defy

greenwoodpecker

Hi, I have a giant defy advanced pro 1 2015 which has I believe has 140mm 6 bolt rotors, I am replacing the wheels with a set of zipp 30 course wheels and need advice on what rotors I can use with this combination, I cannot find out what rotors are fitted to the current wheels. many thanks.

If it's 140mm 6-bolt rotor then you should just be able to fit any 140mm rotor that matches the wheel (6-bolt or centrelock on the Zipp?) and you'll be fine.

Yes they are 140mm 6-bolt.
As above, the first question is whether the Zipps accept centerlock or 6-bolt rotors.
If they are 6-bolt, use your existing rotors and install them on the new wheels. If you need/want new rotors, TMK Shimano does not make a 140mm 6-bolt rotor, so you need to look to other brands; Sram, Hope, TRP.
If the Zipp wheels take centerlock, look no further than the Shimano RT99 Ice-Tech rotors.

Avid Centreline are good rotors, and available in 140mm 6-bolt
