Looking for some new rotors or Discs as i like to call them as being non american. Looked at all sorts, i like the XT ice tech ones and obligatory floating coloured ones. So i've looked at the superstar ones and the Uberbike ones Look a bit similar but am i missing a obvious choice? 203mm front 180mm rear. After using my spare wheels this morning i notice the difference in braking power of the X0 discs i have on my good wheels as being a bit naff, to the cheaper Superstar pressed steel versions being far better, and using the same pads. I noticed how poor my breaking was in wales, and i think it could of contributed to my crash last month? Toodles |

I would thoroughly recommend the Shimano ICE tech rotors had 2 sets and both have been brilliant. |

Both made in same far eastern factory, a bit like Left Twix and Right Twix scenario |

They have been the ones that stay the most true for me even in the 203 size. Incidentally i am going to up my rotors from 180 to 203 as i feel i could do with a bit more |

I ordered some new XT ones in the end. CRC didnt have a pair and were slightly more expensive. RedTwo, XT brakes are awesome, best brakes for the money. |
