Apparently my front rotor is warped/thin and needs replacing. I've got a price on a ebc rotor, and maybe a galfer $$$. The Latter might be too pricey an option, wondering if they're any other reasonable options I've overlooked. From what I understand the Galfer is a better performing/looking rotor, but was wondering if I switched to a braided line and went with the ebc rotor if I'd be in better shape?

any advice would be great

cheers

EBC rotors are rotten. They don't work in the wet, cover in surface rust if you put the bike away wet, and warp quite easily. Stick with stock if you can find it! even secondhand will be better than EBC.

Try www.davidsilverspares.co.uk in the UK for a quote if you are struggling to find, I bought one from them once but it was years ago, no idea if they still have any.

In the UK there are a few on ebay eg,
