Aside from the fact that the iron rotors w/carriers (black anodized to go with my black Marchesini forged Aluminum wheels) cost $329.95 + tax a PIECE (uh, yes, multiply by two) and that I had to wait nearly SIX MONTHS for them, they're great. I had the rotors installed and put 200 or so miles on the bike to wear off the coating, which loaded up the pads, and took the bike in to put on new Ferodo pads. In a word -- awesome. Very nice in braking from speed, very predictable without fade when dragging the brake on the twisties. I'm happy. Strange, but the carbon fiber bits I'd been waiting for FOR THE SAME SIX MONTHS suddenly appeared this week, too. I'll take pictures when I can repair the scratches in the plastic parts that I'm keeping.
