Slightly OT, but does anyone have an old 180mm disc rotor? I'm going to cut it in half so don't want a blinging one.

Or random question, is there anyone out there that can machine 5mm Alu? I'm basically after a bash guard for my rotor on my polo bike and the options are limited. Someone in the states makes a front one for $60 posted, but I need it for the rear, and don't want to pay that much.

Happy to pay monies.

I think theyre only for sliding drop outs though?

You'd be lucky to get anything custom machined for much less than £35 TBH.... Especially if you dont have any drawings or a CAD file to work from.

Ah right, so it would probably be worth getting a job lot done then. That price is doable.
There would be drawings for sure.

Can you recommend somewhere R?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
