Brake disc opinions

Post by freeridenick »

Anyone got any thoughts on EBC vs Armstrong discs? I've got a set of each and I want to use the 'best' set with the Supercorsas and the others on the wets.

I have heard from a few that EBC are not what they used to be and in that comparison people seem to rate the Armstrong highly.

Whichever set you do not usw...will they be for sale?

(I also did not give the above opinion based on my question!)
If you don't try you never know if you can do it.

Ha ha, thanks Rob. The plan is to use both unfortunately, one on each set of wheels to avoid having to swap discs as well. It's a right pain in the chuff.

Just try them, probably armstrong on the dry setup first.
You should be able to feel which works best.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
