Just got some RT76 rotors and they come with mounting hardware (traingular headed screws and locking plates).

Do I have to actually use them or can I just mount the rotors as a normal rotor (mainly as I want to use Ti bolts)?

Thanks

Ti bolts on brakes eh?

Have used Avid & Formula bolts with mine as well as the triangular-headed bolts that come with them.

No problems with any of them rotor bolts are rotor bolts

A smear of blue Loctite doesn’t go amiss

locking plates always went in the bin.

Triangle bolts are PITA with other rotors especially anything countersunk.

In the end if your Ti bolts hold it on then no problem

MrN,

I would like your triangular bolts and the paired alloy tab-washers if you are going to bin/shelve them.

Thread hijack, sorry!

If using normal bolts, say buying second hand, can you use without the ‘fixing washer’ and ‘Tightening plates’?

Just put 6 bolts in the holes. 5 is enough 4 if your desperate.

Rest is waste of time

Yup have been using them like this for min 18 months I like to live life on the edge

Nice one!

Nice one, as I suspected, thank you all.

Yes, nothing wrong with that, not as if I actually ride fast enough to use my brakes!

PaulD, I suspect at most I’ll just use the washer but the tightning plates and bolts will be shelved. Email in profile if you still want them.
