probably shoulda bought a better rotor, if it bends its usually a sign of poor quality!

As a rule the cheaper rotors are thicker and less likely to break

have you sent those rotors back to the company that produced them, as im sure they would like to see that as its a majour safty defect.

i cant understand how you guys keep killing rotors on here, iv never come close to having one fail.
