CZP 2pc Rotors also include Thermal Stability Profiling (TSP) for improved heat handling, Thermo-Graphic paint markings for effective heat monitoring and Kangaroo Paw ventilation which runs cooler, stronger and outperforms traditional straight vane disc rotors by up to 20%. Our Hats are Aerospace Grade, and use a 6061 Aluminum to allow the disc to expand evenly. This keeps down the heat, and provides additional protection for wheel bearings.[/SIZE]


LOL, We're totally beating a retarded horse, I don't mean to argue at all, I am just thinking CZP should get their own facts straight. (At the top of the page you posted it also says 23lbs, LOL)



If they are using the same DISC as DBA, do we really think they can save an EXTRA 3-4lbs JUST on the already aluminum hat?
Or are they using a thinner disc? Or are they using a disc that has less... Um... (outside diameter is the same, but the inside diameter is larger so it is less disc, and less cast iron? But then IMO you're really close from pad area to the edge of the aluminum)

That is something I fear with the Z1 rotors, yes, lighter is better, but if there isn't enough meat, the disc are more prone to warping, and if Z1 is choosing a thinner walls for each side of the rotor... I'll pass too, a bit extra life if worth it to me, as well as the warping factor...


And I think the kangaroo paw may not be the "best" for air flow, but I like that the meat is equally distributed vs vanes.
