Dunno what will reach you first mate i sent you a message on ebay too. Was wondering if you would take an offer of £80 then add postage on top?

Also are they brand new? eg perfectly true?

top tip, dont use the race discs on a road bike. they rust like a bugger.

no problem, they work and work well but due to their higher carbon content they rust. I use them on my race bike.

The discs can be stripped and cleaned but on a road bike its a lot of hassle. They are actually sold by EBC and Brakes4u as 'race use only' for this reason.
