Pretty wild. I wonder how they will hold up with that much braking surface/material removed? I know alot of the drilled and dimpled/slotted aftermarket rotors from China and other countries have been rather dubious for fractures and cracks and such at the drilled and slotted areas.

About an hour to create the toolpath. Luckily I didnt have to draw all of the geometry from a blueprint. This guy provided a model of the part that I could import into Esprit cam which makes it much easier to program. Once the part is set up on the mill the actual cut time is only about 15 minutes a piece.

What would be really wild is what happens if the front rotor breaks apart at one of the thin cross-sectional areas and the brake is applied at speed. OUCH!!

Default Re: Modified brake rotors.

Is that weird design for some kind of function? Or just to look cool/weird?

It looks like you could do some woodshop while riding...
