Anyone have any experience or opinions on these.

Seem a very good price for 256mm vented drilled and grooved.

Apparently they are based in northern Ireland.

I've read some stuff that says they buy the discs in then drill and grrove them in house.

Looking at a few sites the discs get okay reviews but not their pads.

I for one never skimp on brakes (or tyres!), and they are the only things that bring you to a halt (or keep you on the black stuff!).

I'd be weary of cross drilled discs, I think Nate had issues of some starting to stress crack around the holes. Might be worth searching for that issue to see how common it is. GSF will sell you their premium discs (usually brembo) for £50 and some pennies and ive never had any problems with them. I used to warp cheap 256mm discs!
