I guess this is probably obvious to everyone except me - why are floating rotors better than non-floating. Assuming they are.
Less prone to bending? Lighter? marginally maybe. Mostly they just look better I think.

Had plenty of solid & floating & cant say they are any less prone.
So other than looks not much then.
Thanks.
They're not better, just more expensive, more likely to have compatability issues, and sometimes heavier too.
They make a great ticking sound when cooling down
They're not much lighter and, in fact, Ashima and Alligator make lighter steel discs.
he benefit if floating rotors is that, when they get hot, they distort less and more evenly, so perform better. This only applies for prolonged or heavy braking, or both, and certainly isn't an issue in the British winter, but definitely an advantage in the Alps for example.
Hope that helps (and is clear)
