Got the discs two days ago. They look good. Only concern really is how they done the bobbins at the rear side of disc. Will take pics. Just took old ones off and giving wheel a shower.

Anybody know the correct torque settings for tie disc bolts? going to have a search on the forum now.

Paid £120 for the two front discs.

I bought a rear from china also for £50 but had to modify it slightly to fit :/

Think there a post on first page about rear discs for about £30, and they are a straight swap.
