Depends on who you speak to as to the benefits of wavy discs - I bought them becasue they look cool and I got them cheap.

I use Renthal grips and I have to say longevity for something costing less than £10 isn't a concern. No issue with vibrations that I've noticed

And they are light-weight! But looking cool - yes I admit - is a good reason too. :P Bought mine the opposite of cheap :?

I also happen to have those "super grips" and I can say longevity actually is a concern, they are like eraser or something! :shock:

You've misunderstood what I was saying.

Yes they do wear quickly but I couldn't give a toss as they cost next too nothing

I've got myself the Braking Wave discs in front and back with sintered pads in front...
Looks good (got them underpriced), are lighter and they 'bite' like hell :twisted:

And Pazzo's in front (with a R6 holder for the clutch one), better feeling, adjustable and look good 2.

Thanx, but it does run... (only this year not much and this year it will run not much again due to a newborn yet to come :D )

I'm just a polishing kind of guy 8) (and when it's in this state, it costs less effort to keep it so :wink: )
