Hi
Having received excellent service and also being really impressed by the quality of some CNC span adjustable levers I got direct from a chinese company - I am seriously thinking of buy a set of front and rear discs from China (Huge saving on cost).
Just wondered if anyone bought any of these discs - what is the quality like and also they state than any import duties etc are the buyers responsibility - what do these charges amount to?
Bike is an FZ750 but running FZR1000 wheels etc
TIA

I have heard horror stories about them eating pads, warping and wearing quickly but how many people have been perfectly happy with them and said nothing? Far more than have moaned I expect.

I'd quite happily fit them to my bikes. They are just lumps of machined metal after all and short of them being made of cheese they aren't going to have a critical failure.

Because I use different brake and clutch master cylinders (FZR1000 clutch R1 Brake) they asked me to sent photo's so they could match the fittings - brilliant service
