Anyone had any dealings with this company? This seems a very good price (UK exchange rates). I know they are not standard but details overall seem okay?

They look nice, but are undoubtedly Chinese manufacturing. Price is right. Its a gamble. If there were no other options, I would be tempted. but since there are many other choices from companies known for making good brakes, I would pass on them. EBC makes rotors that are steel (not stainless) that have very good characteristics, Galfer and several others. That rotor (300mm)is the same as many Yamaha rotors, and those work very well ( I have them on my Sport for 2 years) and they are cheap on e-bay.
for instance http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/YAMAHA-1 ... ccessories

Cheers,

They have the same shape of the Braking ones, but who knows....
About the brakes I'd go only with well known brands.

excellent feedback.
Why not send a question to some buyers and see if they still like them after some use.
I have been contacted by ebayers in the past asking my opinion of a product/seller.
So many products come out of China any way maybe these are OK.

Stiv,

NO NO NO!!!! Do not risk your life for a few quid.

My company has had a few things made in China and when it come to mission critical items like this please, take a pass. Every and I mean every time we received the prototypes, the heat treat was wrong, the material was wrong, the tolerances were all f-ed up, etc.... The parts were NEVER made to the exact spec. If you have a rotor failure while riding you are going to get off in a bad way. Save your pennies, sell your blood or sperm, ask for a dontation from the board but don't trust your life to these.

Jon ....point taken :thumbup: It was only a question, Although it must be said there is a lot of items out there being sold by the Larger companies that are sourced and made in China only to be "finished" and sold in the home country at massive profit.

It's not so easy to estimate the feedbacks received on ebay.
I doubt the buyers have fitted the rotors and ridden its bike enough before they have left the feedbacks.
I'm with Jon.
It's not worth to save few money in such way.
Ciao

It isn't matter of country.
There is worth stuff from PRC but also crap.
A good brand often (but not always) guarantees a good product.
Many well reputed brands built its stuff in China.
But those rotors have no brand.
I have no chance to check the quality of those rotors, so that I wouldn't buy them.
Perhaps they are good enough, only I don't manage to know it.
Ciao

I feel exact same way! :thumbup: There is coming out from China plenty of shit, but as everybody knows, USA and European factories are moving to China caused by cheaper workers, so if we say it "simple way"> Europeans and USA are planning things/stuff and Chinese are building it.... If You lok carefully, also this stuff looks very god and it also CAN be enough good to use till someone really test those rotors and then can say his "own opinion"... They can be also enough good for daily use and as everybody knows, Chinese can do it SOOOO cheaply, what its very hard to resist such rotors... I understood so, that its some USA, or European company who built those rotors in China.... Machines make those rotors, so there is no any matter in what country those machines are located.... There can come also enough good quality products from China.... I can use such rotors (i dont have yet!) till some very good INDEPENDENT company/government, etc. can prove that they are shit....then i can throw away them.. :lol:

Edit: Frankie say "brand": Its just that like Brembo! Brembo have made very long time good stuff for mc brakes, but one day also Brembo can build they units in China caused by too high coasts in EU... Brembo have still that "brand", but one day when they make shit, that "brand" is gone... NO matter is it built in China, or in Europe.. that "brand"! :smoke:

Aprilia on many bikes puts radial calipers built in China.
They SEEM Brembo ones, but don't.
As far as I know, nobody had to regret about. Only Brembo!
If somebody of us could check those rotors professionally...

That would be good idea, as, if they are good quality product, then set have cheap price. I am very intrested of results, if someone buy such set. Such have to put to bike and test for some time to know quality. :smoke:

I never wouldn't do such thing.
I meant about laboratory tests.
If someone fits those rotors and they are not good enough :,( :,( :,( :,( :,( :,(

Just as a follow up to this I have emailed via ebay 5 previous buyers of these discs to see if I could get any history on them this was done via ebay, to date no one has replied but this may have more to do with ebay security than them not bothering to reply.

These have been sold though for a reasonable amount of time.

Another problem not still discussed is about the smoothness of the production.
A couple of those rotors could be good enough, but another don't.
The good, reputed brands guarantee (even if not always :mrgreen: ) about the quality smoothness.
