what is better the 5mm or the 6mm disk brake rotor from EBR? i already know to get the EBR mounting but not sure on the thickness of the rotor.
thanks
 
The 6 mm rotor is one pound heavier, just a fyi.
HOLY ****!

Ya from what i know the 6mm should prevent warping better allowing you to stop hard due to the thickness. As alot of us know the stock rotor is super prone to warping.
 
The warping is from heat cycles and then stopping with the brake engaged and left squeezed at a stop. It leaves deposits on the rotor, which gives you the pulsing. It can sometimes be scrubbed off. Mine is at the wear limit and is getting replaced shortly.
