Hey folks,
I'm ordering new rotors for my KB MM-S from KNS Brakes. They are coming from DBA (Australia). Since they have none in stock, they have to make them just for me. I'm ordering two sets because, well, brakes wear out and I don't want to wait the next time. I already got new hats from Baer, which fit these rotors.
I'm telling you all this because, if you need rotors yourself, now is the time to get them. DBA has to create the tooling to make my set, so it would be relatively trivial to make more than 4 rotors for other people. If you don't want to wait for three months when you need them yourself, and can afford to buy them and put them on the shelf for later, this might be a good time to order and cut the waiting time down.
(No, I have really no idea whether it will cut down the waiting time, but it stands to reason that DBA will try to make a lot of a part that they can sell quickly than only make a few. No, I get nothing out of this. And getting the hats from Baer was no obstacle, since they had them on the shelf.)
Price (I paid right now, and no allowance for quantity): $387.20 per rotor.
