Baradine Rotor 180mm (6-bolt, Stainless Steel 410)
-
180mm size
This is the rotor diameter. 180 mm gives you a noticeable step up in braking power and heat handling compared to 160 mm—great for trail riding, heavier riders, or long descents. -
6-bolt mount
The rotor attaches to the hub with six bolts (the most common standard, originally from Shimano). Make sure your hub matches this—not Center Lock. -
Stainless Steel 410
This is a hardened steel alloy commonly used in brake rotors. It balances:- Good durability (resists wear)
- Decent corrosion resistance
- Stable braking performance under heat
-
“Superior heat dissipation”
A 180 mm rotor already helps with heat because of its size. The cut-out design (the holes/pattern) improves airflow and cooling, which reduces brake fade on long rides. -
“Excellent wear” (wear resistance)
Means it should last a reasonable amount of time before thinning out—assuming proper pad choice and alignment. -
“Stainless in color”
Just means it has that typical silver metallic finish—no coating like some higher-end rotors.
Is it good?
Baradine is generally considered a budget to mid-range brand. This rotor should be:
- ✔ Fine for everyday riding, commuting, light trail use
- ✔ Good value for money
- ✖ Not as consistent under extreme heat as premium rotors (like Shimano Ice-Tech or SRAM HS2)
Things to double-check before buying/installing
- Your frame/fork supports 180mm rotors
- You have the correct adapter for your brake caliper
- Your hub is 6-bolt
- Compatible brake pads (resin vs metallic can affect noise/wear)
