EBC Prolites vs stock rotors
Worth the $$$? How much lighter are they actually?
thanks, Jeff

I don't know. Are they stainless? I haven't heard really good things about them....like DPR pads will ruin them. I use Braking brand.

i got the prolites with the "contour" rotors. i've been reasonably happy with them. however it looks liek i have warped my second set of them (after warping the stockers). can't blame them too mcuh as i seem to have a habit of doing that. i do wish i had got the version with the replaceable friction surfaces (u keep the carrier). along with EBC pads and braided lines, fish once said they were the best brakes he had ever tried. i can't say the same because i;ve only ever ridden 2 bikes hard, and i'm pretty sure the 12R brakes beat the 450 Nighthawk. don't know that they're much lighter than the stockers. those iron rotors are not lightweight. they'er certainly not the carbon/ceramic disks!
