About this product
These Ashima Ai2 Stainless Steel Ultra Light Bicycle Disc Brake Rotors are a pair of 160mm diameter rotors, weighing only 73g each. Designed for mountain bikes, they feature a 6-bolt mounting type and are manufactured by ASHIMA in Taiwan. Their primary feature is their ultra-lightweight construction, making them suitable for riders looking to minimize bike weight without compromising on rotor size.
Our take
For mountain bikers keenly focused on shedding grams, these Ashima Ai2 rotors are definitely worth considering. At just 73g per 160mm rotor, they are incredibly light, which can make a noticeable difference in rotational mass. The stainless steel construction is standard for rotors, offering good braking performance and durability. They use a common 6-bolt mounting, so compatibility with most disc-brake hubs shouldn't be an issue. However, while lightweight is great, extreme weight reduction can sometimes come with tradeoffs in heat management during prolonged, heavy braking, though this isn't specified. For general trail riding where every gram counts, they're a solid choice from a Taiwanese manufacturer.
