Dodgy Discs
 
I put my bike back together a month ago after a heavy stack and everything was fine. Then this week I started hearing this loud clicking noise when front braking.

I investigated today and found that on one of the discs I can move it from side to side. My theory is thus...

The discs got bent in the accident. Over the few hundred miles i've done since, the discs where getting forced side to side under braking, this then has caused those big rivet things to work loose.

Has this happened to anyone before and do you know if you can get the discs straightened and re-riveted?

If not how much are new ones and do you have to replace as a pair?

Not sure if they are the Bandit ones (slightly different design) that he got direct cheap when they were on eBay recently...
