When to replace slotted rotors?
Was putting in new studs this evening and am curious how long you let your rotors go before swapping to new rings?
Starting to get some cracks but none near the edge yet.

I change mine around that level of cracking. When I was hitting the track a lot in the past, I did run them lower. But with 5 kids and one more on the way, I no longer see the benefit vs potential risk. ha!
The level of usage you have out of those seems pretty good.

Love GIRO
The $1,200 GIRO 350mm front starter kit, includes rotors and hats, is a bit steep in my estimation. I suppose the good news is that the GIRO replacement rotors are a mere $800, add in the labor to break down the old rotors from the hats, then the labor to attach the new GIRO rotors to the old hats, you are looking at 2+ hours of labor. Let's say $100 an hour for labor.....now the cost to replace the rotors is at least $1,000. Are there any cheaper options?
Now that GIRO front 2 piece are getting a little "long in the tooth", thinking of going to Serbo 350 mm slotted front rotors, for all intents and purposes, Cayenne S front rotors. Probably much cheaper than the GIRO. May try the PFC pads with the new SERBO rotors, but do love my Pagid Yellows. I do have the Serbo 997 Turbo 350mm slotted toreros on the rear, and they have been spectacular.
I'll post up the info I get on the SERBO front rotors as it becomes available. if I don't forget..

For solid slotted rotors on front I still choose Deman. Sebro scare me for fronts. For 2 piece I'd go Essex AP hook I think. I hate Giro Disc. personal. I got screwed by them during a transition & the make good sucked.

Can you explain what a "slotted Torero" is?
