Haven't tried something like that. They sound similar to Lyndall Rotors (composite). They're supposed to be excellent, but they're very expensive,

Wow, composite rotors for $320! Let us know how they are. $960 isn't too bad, but $1650 was just a little too much! ;)

Talon,
I had a thread on rotors a while back and Erniezap had some familiarity with these. Like you have only seen website. My research thus far the lyndal has track history but are $$$. I am leaning toward braketech ( http://www.braketech.com/cruisers/AXIS-SuperAxe-Rotors.php) stainless steel floating each $289. (braketech also has composite only in 12.5 inch rotor though, but more expensive.)  let me know if you find anything more about experience with w8less ( they also can design a custom carrier to match wheels!) john
