Have heard nothing but good about them, that's who I plan on using, or one of our sponsors...

Here ya go! I am extremely pleased with them. I also have his front wheel spacers, and rear baby moons. He offers polished front rotors, but the ones on my trike came from the dealer.

And here's a zoom shot of the rear.

BTW...the picture in my signature is prior to my ***** Shinys.

Oh yeah...and here's the front. I also had a new Michelin Commander II and a Lyndall gold pads installed when I put on the new front wheel.

Make sure you look close at *****'s chrome spacer between the rotor & fork.

There used to be a person that sold chrome disc brake dust shields for $150 a set for the rear wheels. This is my project for next year, chrome wheels and hopefully I can locate that ebay seller again. Here is a photo of what they look like.

Interesting on the dust shields. But, I can't decide if I like them. I'd have to see in person. Also, it seems they might be more labor intensive to keep clean, and polished, than just waking the chrome wheels and washing all the dust off.

I have a coat of Mquires on my Shiny *****'s, and after 1,500 miles of a tour they are filthy with all kinds of road gook and brake dust. It will be interesting to see how easy or hard they clean up. But, I won't be getting around to doing that until next week. If I remember, I'll post an update.

The guy that sold the dust covers was RJS originals. I think wiz has them on his trike.
