The manual also states to hold the disc clockwise while tightning, also shows the the order to tighten the 6 screws
Hands down best channel for bike info on UA-cam! Thank you.
That was a really well-done explanation, thanks!
Found your video very detailed, informative and useful, thank you.

Thanks!!! My rotors arrived witout manual...
This helped out, very detailed. Thank you
I can see this was published in 2014... but I still see comments about the fixing bolts and lock washers.
If you haven't noticed, the current bolts have 'teeth' underneath the bolt head.
These work with the upturned fingers on the 3 lock washers.
Those fingers and the teeth on the bolts help to keep the bolt from unscrewing.
So... while you may get away with not using the lock washers... it's not spec and won't be under warranty if you don't use them.
.
Just thought I'd pass that along... :)
Tks for the video, I kept looking for the fixing washer in the box, now I feel better that it is normal I cannot find it...
Great video thanks!
Thanks, that was very clear and very useful.
Thank you for your help!
I've just installed one of these following this. Cheers!
@@LoveMTB It had a Hope 160 mm on the rear previously but my local bike shop said the warp in it couldn't be fixed, so I've switched it out for this. Doing some maintainance at the moment for the first time as I'm still learning and off the bike for a few more weeks following a greater tuberosity fracture. The videos are much appreciated, cheers!
Thanks!
GG Shimano to provide a faulty manual.
2-4 nm thanks man!
Crystal clear instructions. Thanks for sharing!
Very helpful🖤
YES.Thank you! So glad I stumbled upon this video. I was trying to figure out why the instructions said i needed a part that wasn't included (the mounting plate) and why I couldn't find it anywhere on the Internet! You have saved me so much time!
I bought a different model but still shimano and mine didn't even come with instructions I had no idea what the tightening plates were for since my old rotors didn't have those.
A quick question, upon installation of this new rotor did u experience any sound when u brake toll a stop?
thankyou!!
Any effect if i didn't put the tightening plates? Please help me 🙏🏼
Thanks a lot ;-)
Big help....my Rotors had no instructions....and the sheet that is on the qr code was just a safety sheet.
Just installed mine today. Yeah, those factory printed instructions are MESSED UP! I was wondering, "How am I suppose to fold those tabs over?" Now I know I won't die. :)
NO mention of pre loading direction of rotor?
Is this compatible with Deore M6100 brakes?
Nice rotor brah
And how does it perform compared to older rotors? Ehat brakes do u have? Can u now use metal pads even though u have deore caliper?
You can get away using metal pads in the city and for slow rides. Deore and lower has resin calipers which can melt if the pads become too hot.
Don't know if important but Shimano say to put gloves on and when tightening then to put rotational pressure.
Guess readies for the coming forces?
@@LoveMTB Thought gloves might be to keep my greasy hands off the rotors ;-) , yeah next time I might preload and rotate, too late this time, I sure with 6 bolts will not move much @ 4nm. Great Video as so Helpful when doing something different the first time.
Have you noticed any improvements in stopping power or modulation with new 160 mm rotors?
+LoveMTB and how do they compare to the avid rotors?
How long did the upgrade last? I was considering these float type ice tech rotors
LoveMTB sweet thanks for your response!
Price ?on usa dlls
From what i see the tightening plates to not help anything with these bolts. Correct me if i am wrong.
New bolts have teeth which lock with the washers. And as for the "Loctite": You're supposed to remove it when you recycle a bolt (use a nylon or brass brush or the like), and apply a fresh coat.
Cant seem to find shimano road 6 bolts rotors. Is this fit to use on a road bike sir? Someone said that its fit for road bike, Im looking for second opinion to clarify. Thanks!
@@LoveMTB 140mm for the rear sir. Is there 140mm? Im seeing only 160 and 180.
Hi, can you tell me please if these are suitable for resin pads or metalic pads. You haven't mentioned it and I was wondering that.
Cheers.
@@LoveMTB Mulțumesc. Am făcut comanda pentru 2 x 180 mm, și le folosesc cu SLX 7100 SHIMANO brakes, sper sa le am pana la sfârșitul săptămânii.
@@LoveMTB Am petrecut câteva ore urmărind cateva din sfaturile tale și tot nu am ajuns la concluzia dacă am nevoie de adaptor pt 180 mm rear disc rotors. Momentan am 160 fără adaptor. Crezi ca am nevoie de adaptor pt 180 Ice Tech 86?
Mulțumesc.
@@LoveMTB LOL. Videoclipul pe care l-ai făcut e fantastic și destul de explicit, doar ca eu sunt la început în ceea ce privește mtb.
Apreciez efortul pe care îl faci si cred ca faci o treaba excelenta.
Cu respect,
Florin Sirbu
my Shimano has 3 screws of the six are slightly shorter (???)
Is it worth to spend a little more for these or just stick with regular XT rotors?👍🚴
Thanks for suggestions, I will keep that in mind👍
I can tell you that they really keep cooler, after using them on my front brake for a couple of months, I noticed less brake fade on long rides and also the pads glassed much less. and I also think they look bad ass :p
I feel really stupid to ask this question... I also have the Avid g2 clean sweep rotor and my brake is a Avid BB7 mtn. Would this rotor work with my brake? If that's the case... Is the new rotor more stiff/rigid that the clean sweep?
Thanks but I like the power my brakes exert. I just hate the rubbing noise. That's why I asked you if the shimano ones are more stiff than the G2 ones.
Ahh thanks a lot :)
Why are the Rt76 easier to keep straight compared to the RT86? Is the icetech technologie from the rt86 making the rotors less solid?
I think so too
+LoveMTB it's very weird. Appart from crashes rotors bend after overheating too much. And the main purpose of this feature is to stop them from overheating. I can't wait to see if the set I just bought will remain straight
is this rotor compatible with a 6 bolt hub but on a road bike?
@@LoveMTB Thank you!!!
is it ok if i use these rotors with Shimano BL-M395 ???
okay thx for answering me :)
nope, your brakes need the wide type of rotor. with that kind of calipers you cannot use two-piece rotors like the one shown here.
does it take metal pads ??
@@LoveMTB thank you
The bike store I'm going to has SM-RT86-S. Are they the same?
They work on recent Shimano M8000, not on older makes and model -- the inner spider is too large. You lose 3/8" to 1/4" of brake surface when adjusting the calipers on traditional Avid and Hayes brakes, making the brake useless. Your video did not put the wheel on the bike!
I cant find these rotors in 203 mm 😫😫😫
@@LoveMTB 6 years old video and still answering comments,What a legend
I think centerlock Is way better system
Why? I prefer the redundancy of 6 fasteners vs ONE that a special tool is needed to fasten or remove.
@@Assimilator702 I take off the rotors when wash the bike, when lube the bike, when inspect and grease the hubs, etc. If you have 6 bolts is a PITA, and when you have damaged the bolt head it is more pita then. Since using center lock I have never had a problem with it. Everything is faster, easier and simpler.

I got two of these and both wer not true so bought another two caus I like the look of them and these are both bent ther absolutely shit
