Pro-lite is the EBC trademark name of its replacement range of sportbike fully floating rotors. Do not confuse floating rotors with rotors that feature loose rotors blades or buttons. You should not be able to move either the buttons or rotor blades from side to side, if you can, it is highly likely that pad “Knock Back” will occur and you will end up with spongy brakes.
Pro-lite rotors are all a 9 button construction but do also feature the EBC patented SD system square drive button technology. Until now all original and aftermarket rotors use the outdated CIRCULAR drive button technology.
This outdated method of building rotors has now been consigned to the history books as EBC Brakes proudly announces the arrival of a new and PATENTED design of drive button known as the SD System. SD stands for Square Drive which describes the button designs used in EBC pro-Lite rotors and their stable mates the X and XC rotors. Click here to see a video explaining this new technology.

Pro-lite rotors also feature stainless steel rotor blades and stainless rivet hardware mounted onto lightweight aluminium centre hubs which are gold or silver anodised according to bike cosmetic
Always use new pads when replacing rotors, the use of old or worn pads can cause hot spots or glazing of the rotor and will promote brake fade and loss of brake. |
