Yeah they are sweet. Riding them this morning to see how they perform in the real world

Yeah TRP I believe just came out with a new rotor that looks just like the shark. Neko Mulally runs a wave in the front and a shark in the rear on his frameworks dh bike. And I agree, there are a lot of good rotors out there!

I'm running tektro 2.3mm rotors. 203mm/180mm on my trail bike. Cost me like $25-30 an end on eBay. I have a bunch of Shimano rotors and the machining quality is terrible. There's whole patches of the rotors that didn't even touch the pad after months of riding. RT64 and 66.. The flatness and machining quality of the tektro rotors is way better and they cost next to nothing...have a pair of centre lock and 6 bolt 2.3mm rotors and they run on Clarks m4 calipers with deore levers. The fact that these premium manufacturers are using "2mm" as some crazy move forward is off considering the majority of the $10 rotors I have here are all 1.95mm to begin with. Shimano seemed to be the only rotors I've ran that came under 1.8mm.

@@lucideuphoria7092 Nice! I'll have to check those out. I've been using my galfers every day this week at Mammoth Mountain Bike Park where I live and they have been great. Will definitely take a look at the Tektro.

@@trailpimp6369 I have them on my Kenevo Sl ebike and they work great! I'll be doing a part 2 summary review comparing them to the crap Shimano ice tech rotors I had previously.. These are the best rotors out there!

You're running Yamaha rotors on your mtb? Or Yamaha pads?

If you're talking about DP Cryomonster rotors, they are pressed out which is inferior to laser cut. The new TRP rotors look very similar to the Galfer Sharks and are probably a good choice too.

@@TheMarkList haha, no, iPhone auto correct MDR-P (the MAGURA two piece floating rotor).

@@andrew8200m ahh... Yeah hope makes a sick 2 piece also but you have to upgrade everything... Calipers etc. The nice thing about the galfers is they work on lots of brands...

You can use most calipers that come on most bikes at $3000 or more. SRAM Codes for example work perfectly with these (MDR-P), as do hope E4, Clark C4s, TRP DH-R Evos etc. If your going to run entry level brake calipers then sure, you’ll run in to issues but there are target markets for a reason after all.

Hah! Glad I made you laugh... But if you've ever held enve carbon rims in your hand or some 5dev cranks, you CAN see the quality... It doesn't take a genius to know what's good and what's crap! 😁

I wouldn’t usually comment on such things BUT you can tell the difference between a pressed and a cut rotor. You can also tell the difference from an 1.8mm thick to an 2mm thick rotor. For the money, the SRAM and Shimano equivalents are simply more expensive and those at this price level are pretty average. But as I’ve mentioned previously in here, I’d take a two piece MDR-P any day of the week. You can find them for a bargain price in the UK and they are simply fantastic.

@@andrew8200m I'm in Mammoth Lakes, CA and Galfer USA is in Carson City, Nevada just a few hrs drife away. I agree wtih you on cut versus pressed. The difference between top tier and standard place holders is quite apparent just to the naked eye. A lot of pro's run the galfers and I wanted to see for myself how good they are. So far they've been amazing. I wish I has purchased some a while ago! That being said, there are a lot of very good high end rotors out there.. and it's good to have a favorite!
