probably going to need a pair of rotors shortly, currently have 203/183mm hope floating ones. but they are very worn and quite old.

Whats good? The hope have lasted well but they aren't cheap, or that quiet.

cheers Paul

Shimano Deore / SLX discs are good, they're not bad looking for solid discs, last well and cost about a tenner each. The only slight sticking point for you might be the fact they come in 203mm and 180mm not, 183mm I've never had a problem mixing metric discs and imperial brakes or whatever they're called, but you never know.

Clarks have never let me down. I've had a 203 floating on the front for years now. No noise or rattles. As good as the Hope floater on the rear ime.

I want vented rotors.  Just because.

I have been quite impressed with my Galfer rotors so far, straighter out the box than many I have had before, bedded in quickly and easily.

Hope Floating on everything (where possible) for over 12 years.

My last couple of pairs went rattly, so I switched. Currently on Shimano Ice-tech and have just swapped out a slightly warped 160mm for a 180mm, which better suits my build!

Can second the Clarks, had mine on for 6 months without issue. They look just as good as the Hopes and a 203mm is only £15 on eBay.
