Ok , whats the difference between the normal bolt on disc brakes and "centrelock" discs.

Apart from the way they fit on is one better than the other ??

[Grahame]

Not significantly.

Thanks Graham,

I'm assuming you need specific wheels ?

so if I wanted to change at some point I'd have to change the wheels as well

Centrelock 100% better if you're putting your bike on the plane and need to take your rotors off. I assume you know the hubs will have to be different for both systems.

can't you get fittings to go from centre lock to bolt on but not vise versa
