#10751, "I think I was wrong"
In response to In response to 2



          

Bump

But let me also add I gave this some more thought and my initial thoughts were wrong. The force applied to the brake pad is determined by the cross section of the brake piston, so regardless of what size the contact patch is between the pad and the rotor the force will be the same. So in theory loss of contact area will have no affect of braking ability. But to quote Homer Simpson: "In theory communism works."

I still would like to know what your personal experience has been with slotted and/or drilled rotors.
