Hi Nelson,
Eyeballed the disc!!
Fcuk me your good if you can see a run out of only a few thou!
Because that's all it'll take to cause the lever to pulse...

Straws...and grasping to be done....

Whats the thoughts on heating the disc up in the oven (loving wife) and letting it cool slowly. As this is how you can straighten ali car heads, do you think it could work?

New Disc is £146 and was hoping on selling the bike for £400!!!

Cheers

No that won't work You need a heat treatment oven for normalising temp, then it needs to be clamped between 2 flat faces.

As its likely to be only thous out of true I very much doubt if that will do it also.

Have you actually recorded the run out with a DTI inplace??

What about breaking it for spares?

Anyone know approx grinding costs? Havent got a Dti(I used to be a toolmaker but only let me bring 25kgs luggage to the Uk) and had no need until now.

Just got an offer on the bike too...
