I went to a bike show recently and was recently persuaded to buy a set of these revolutionary light-weight carriers and rotors for my Superduke.
The guys selling them said they only had a few left and, although they weren't cheap, they'd let me have a set if I went outside and did the deal from the back of their car. They had an old Jag and in the boot, under a blanket they uncovered these revolutionary new brakes. They explained to me that the materials and fabrication process was so advanced, something to do with NASA and stealth technology, that they are more or less invisible and have no mass at all.
From what I know mass is the killer for anything that is bolted to the forks so I was listening and also the word 'stealth' got me excited.
So I parted with a couple of hundred quid and fitted them as soon as I got home today.
I know you are all jealous as fook but guys, you have to be there and know what you're doing to get deals like this. Like me.
See you at Cadwell for the Crashfest.

Why didn't you get the matching callipers and save yourself a lot more unsprung mass?

So, I have to ask - while appearing so lightweight as to appear "invisible", er "stealth", I'm assuming from the photo, that to achieve optimum performance it's requisite to run the wheel in the direction opposite to OE/design - ?

I love the invisible stealth rim tape.
