Hey, where are all the naysayers who won't compromise their safety by putting cheap Chinese rubbish on their bikes?
These are the same brand* as the wave pattern ones I have.
*Not that this means a damn thing in China.

I was only thinking this the other day when for a moment considered buying these and thought ... cheap Chinese shit that would explode one day when I needed brakes.
No offence but I like tried and tested not cheap and nasty.

If something is $1000 it must be good quality....right.
My arse.....your supplier is probably buying that product for $300
Example $250 Monster Cable HDMI......I buy for less that 50 bucks

My rotors have done more than 12,000km in the last 4 months and haven't exploded yet. They aren't showing any signs of wear either, so I have no idea when they'll be thin enough to be a worry.
