yeo and smith fixed my bike once! top guys (a bearing decided to die and explode, leaving the race still in the hole:():thumbs:

I tried Yeo & Smiths and they couldn't do it, nor suggest anybody that could :(

[Channie]

U'll be lucky... besides it would probably cost a fortune...

More to the point why dont you jus buy some grooved discs????

Brembos don't come grooved, and I wasn't keen on the EBC discs. I'm not sure of who else does grooved discs, as the ones that Bren sells, are Brembo ones that he's had grooved especially. The Brembo discs are setting me back £106, as opposed to the £148 for standard and about £170 for grooved ones that Apex charges :)

grooving is not as easy as it looks mate, its a cnc program that needs writing (have written a few in the past for this job) and the set up time, and machining time is not quick,

it can be done on a manual mill using a rotory table but its a very very long winded job, (drilled a few discs in the past in a similar way

also for the gain it will make its not worth it, unless like me you can do it in work and take your time at no cost

RED DOT Racing can do it for you mate, you send them the disc's and they send tham back grooved. Cant remember how much i paid though.
