Hi,

S.mac-Its a Disc / Belle combination, instead of the
CSL One piece discs.

I have 2 piece, belles etc, on the front.

I think the standard CSL Disc are very good, not sure why
somebody has not done just a caliper upgrade to run with
the standard CSL Discs.

Many after market kits go to 32mm or 35mm thick discs
as opposed the 28mm of the CSL ones.
That alone adds back about 1.2 kg over the 28mm thick ones.

The rears would be good as well, make the belles
out of 6063 hard Alloy, and hard anodize to 60 thou microns,
for the hand Brake shoes,
save about 2/3 kgs a side of un-sprung weight,
and still retain the handbrake.

Regards,

The Gorilla.
