Very nice, but why are they attached to a circular saw?

God knows if they'd improve the handling that much, but they would improve the looks a fair bit!

I have had this conversation with someone who races a lot and builds a lot of race bikes. He said he's tried, back to back, a bog stock setup. Then swapped to his lightest wheels, with lightest rotors, Ti disc bolts etc. and not gone round the track any faster.

Waste of money IMO and apparently the super trick ones are easily damaged under road conditions. I was seriously looking at a dymag front, I didn't bother.

They are very nice and trick, and that's a lot less than a new set, but no point going to that extreme until you already have triple clicker rear shock and revalved forks.
