Anyone tried these in 203mm?

I had one, the backing fell off it after my octopus fitted it using the wrong rock.

On the plus side, the schizophrenic customer service made up for it.

Had some on my bike, caused bad fork judder so took them off.
It may have been something else but changing them cured it.

Google aligator rotors, they do some nice light/fancy rotors, cheep too, I've used them for years without any problems. Power is lightly down over more solid designs though.

Yup, had nasty fork judder using them with Juicy 3s so replaced them with the Vibe ones which cured it.

Funnily enough i have also experienced juddering with these rotors, more so when using standard avid pads in the wet.
If i am honest i dont think they have the power or the feel of a standard 160mm avid rotor (in my 180mm), but you dont have as much braking surface because of the design.
Looks or performance is what it comes down too imo.
