Default Rotor weights ?
Do you have the weights of some of the performance rotors ?

RDA v DBA v Brembo ?

Although I've never weighed mine ...when I had to replace my Brembo units on the BFGT with some RDA slotted and dimpled - the RDA units definitely felt heavier.

Would be interested to see which units and models are the lightest.

The RDA are heavier in my opinion and i think they were about 13kgs each from memory but the DBA and Brembo seem to be about 12.5kgs each
