Celtic Power!

Celtic Power and Machining did some work for us on our stock front brake rotor.  We've decided to stick with the stock rotor, but hopefully upgrade to a stronger/more modern caliper.  The stock rotor was solid, and incredibly heavy at over 7mm thick... modern rotors are around 5mm!  Hopefully we've taken a bit of weight off of the assembly by getting Celtic to drill these holes... and it should help with heat dissapation as well.  The kids decided the "direction" of the rotor "swirls" -- they wanted the angle to point "forward" to make it look more aggressive.  You'll see what we mean when it is mounted on the bike.  A big thanks to Gavin and Brian for helping us out with this project... I suspect we will be making more visits to their shop.  You can check out the diverse services they offer by checking out the link to the right.
