Re: Warped Rotors

["Fred Munro" <munrof@isys.ca>]

Hi Vince;

    I have found that turned rotors always warp after hard use. I suspect
that the turning induces stress in the rotor which is relieved when the
rotor heats during use.
    I always use new rotors; it saves the frustration of doing the job
twice.
