I notice there is a new semi-floating rotor on the market -alloy carrier similar to SRAM design; so judging by there being less metal, it looks to be lighter than the Hope SAW .... but at 1/2 the price. :lol:

Anyone got one and weighed it?

Aztec's semi-floating rotors offer sharp and reliable stopping power. The cooling holes on the rotors act to dissipate heat and cut glaze to maximise braking power.

anyone has verified weights on these?

Was intrigued until I saw the weights and while I had been considering Scrub Components very pricey semi-floating rotors, but at 1/3 the price of the Scrub rotors, the Hope lightweight rotors at ~78 grams for the 160's seem a better option.
