Rear brake discs for
an SZ/RZ are very hard to find new and are specific to the ES30.
Several manufacturers
have made them over the years but supplies of plain discs are
depleted often leaving owners with the only option of buying very
expensive "sports" discs. If you want ready made "off
the shelf" discs then click here to
see the various options and part numbers.
I don't want any £300-400
discs (sports discs can be very noisy) on the back of my SZ, I
only need plain old standard vented discs.
Contacting a couple
of brake disc manufacturers to organise a batch to assist other
owners showed some promise; one replied to say they were already
thinking about making ES30 discs, for £200 each! The other
suggested I could send them one of mine to copy, which sounded
more hopeful but I was worried about the cost again.
So, I came up with an
idea; hopefully it will work out at around £40-50 for a
pair of replacement discs, after an initial outlay...if it works!
