Installed Nassert Beet 320mm Front Rotor today
Hi
I installed a Nassert Beet 320mm floating front rotor today. So far I am pretty impressed but will give it a proper mountain twisty ride tomorrow. Looks good on the bike too I also had braided front line & EBC HH pads already so this I thought may be a nice addition. As such the pads are not bedded in yet with the rotor but initial hard stops were promising. Very strong progressive feel to it. I am thinking this will be enough for me & not need to go the bigger caliper master route. But I imagine that coupled with this rotor could be pretty potent too.

Thanks guys
Old3 your the one that pushed me over the edge to try this Will give it a test today after I go get a new Rosso II for the rear today. Folks at the shop were teasing me yesterday asking why I was running a rear slick yesterday. That last Rosso II lasted me about 7-7500 KM or around 4500 miles Front is still good for another round Cannot complain as I love these tires so much |

That is a Nasset Beet I bought here in Thailand
I should have said floating not full floating in my 1st post & have edited it. I forgot full float is the type that rattles it is so loose. This is just float or semi rigid I guess? |

It'll loosen up and rattle at some point, then you replace the buttons. Looking forward to your review!

It is not bad at all & just over $100 USD
I tested it today after installing a new Rosso II rear tire I like it. I feel it definitely has more to it when doing hard stops. But of course when riding I did not note anything big difference wise as I am not usually hard on the front brake. More of an engine braking person as I ride high revs & have tight courses to ride. But everything felt fine & when testing hard emergency type stops I did feel it was more substantial. Must be the leverage I imagine with a 4 pot it would be very impressive indeed. One thing I did find out today is I had sent a email to Nassert Beet asking if they also offered other caliper adapter for this rotor. I was surprised when they responded that this is not their product. I know many times in Asia there is piracy/ brand copying etc. of sorts for big names etc. But still was surprised that a company could be so bold as to use a very unique name like Nassert Beet. Obviously to ride their coattails/ reputation. It is a good quality rotor though as far as I can tell & worked well for me today. |

Did you by chance weight the new rotor and bracket against the solid iron rotor?
