powerz Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Im sure they are 160mm rotors standard not 180mm, as for what is a good rotor im not sure realy, but im using an A2Z disc rotor it does the job and looks alright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyb Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 The aztec rotors are pretty decent, had one a while back and it was really good.Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom 20 Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 how bend is the rotor, if its not to bad you may aswell try and straighten it out e.g. running over it with a landrover or something but if it is completely wrecked look on ebay at the a-z rotors or get a new magura wavey disk.

It'll be weaker after straightening but should last a while, and atleast for the time it takes for a new disc to arrive if you got a new one (should be okay though).Ben g WST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gianttrials Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Vice it on the bend, but progresivelly so that it doesn't crack/warp/fracture (they're pretty tough though). It works i've done it before.Ben G WST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris mac Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 (edited) Hello, i have done this many of a time, all as you need to do is get an adustable spanner adust it to the size of your disc (its like 2-3mm) and bend it out or in. remember to do around it to thats always a winner. it musnt weaken your rotor that much because i have a mono trial and those discs are renound to snap. dont worrie about the weaknes. hope ive helped.
