Title: Brake disc assembly recommendations anyone?
Post by: bludclot on 05 June 2016, 02:03:50 pm

My Honda CB400 restoration is nearing completion but I am stuck with finding someone to re-assemble my front disks. The rotors and carriers have been drilled part and the carriers stove enamelled but I don't know who to ask for re-assembly.
This is the second attempt, the first discs went to All Bike Engineering (London), I didn't like the obviously blasted to death carriers and the buttons look suspiciously like they've been hammered home with by hand using a ball bearing - plus there's no movement in them at all, not good for semi-floaters.
I found thediscdoctor.co.uk online that look good but delve a little deeper and their reputation on the forums is shot to bits. So can anyone help? This is already an expensive part of this bike...

Hi bludclot, these guys near me have a very good rep but they're not cheap- but I suppose no-one is these days.  :\

Thank you for that. I called them yesterday but unless I commission an entire custom disc they won't work customer's pieces. Still looking.
