My front disc on my KLE 500 is badly worn.  The service limit is 4.5mm and I am now 3mm.  The stealers want R 3250-00 for a new OEM  ex Japan.  I mean WTF!!!  I can get a EBC disc from Wemoto in the UK for 93 Pounds, but want to try local first.
Does anyone know where (in Cape Town) I can get an aftermarket disc for my bike or can anyone make up a new one using the correct grade of steel.  I heard of guys making up brake discs using the incorrect grade of steel and they dont last.  What is the correct grade of steel to use?  Advice appreciated.   :thumleft:
