Price (is in euros) is ok, I think.

I bought one of these. I have just received it and it really looks great. Here's a link to the manufacturer's homepage:

I have fitted metalgear discs to a mates bike.
All good, fitted well with no reports of any problems in use.

rear disc

Post by Professor »

The stealth rear disc was fine, I've probably done over 1000 miles by now inc a few trackdays

Gently waved, not extreme. No problems, I would say it work as well as or better the the worn OEM the it replaced. Good in the wet too, and snow and ice! Although I wasn't braking too hard in these conditions.

They could have made a lighter weight design as the disc area is larger than the pad area needed. Probably about the same weight as OEM. I could weight them if anyone is really bored :roll:
Hardcore you know the score
