What's your verdict on the prolites? Are they much lighter than OEM? What's the quality like?

Yeah been looking at the pfms. Info seems a bit sketchy but as I understand they do a ductile iron version and a steel version too. I assume your running the ductile iron as its a race bike but I'm wondering if the steel ones are better than the ebc prolites.

Never mind taping the buggers up, it took twice as long to take it off.
