Go to the Lyndall website and price out a black, ceramic rotor, $549.00 each, OUCH! And that's only if you do the front, $1098 for front and back, Over $1650 for a dual front brake setup, + shipping.

Undoubtedly a great product, but just to look "pretty" on a Fatty or other bike, I hope there is a lot of cash in family.

Look sharp though. Probably a silly question, but is there any less stopping power? Do you need special brake pads for them?
