The Hope RX Centrelock Floating Disc Rotor is a high-performance braking component designed for road cyclists seeking consistent stopping power and thermal reliability. This rotor is ideal for riders upgrading their disc brake systems, featuring a two-piece floating construction that mitigates warping under heavy heat. While it offers excellent durability and a unique aesthetic, users should note that the lockring is not included in the package and must ensure adequate frame and caliper clearance before installation.

No, the Hope RX Centrelock Floating Disc Rotor does not include a lockring.
No, this is specifically designed for centre-lock hub systems.
Floating rotors allow the steel braking track to expand with heat without warping, which improves performance and durability.
While intended for road disc systems, ensure your frame and caliper clearance is sufficient, as some MTB calipers may interfere with the floating design.
Prior to installation, manually rotate the wheel to confirm that the rivet heads do not strike the brake caliper or any part of the frame.
Clean the braking surface with a dedicated disc brake cleaner or isopropyl alcohol to remove oil, grease, or road grime.
Check that the caliper is properly aligned and that the frame mount provides enough clearance for the floating rivets.
Check the rotor for true alignment and ensure the hub lockring is tightened to the correct torque specification.
Ensure you are using a lockring compatible with your specific axle type (e.g., thru-axle specific external or internal spline lockrings).
Installation requires a standard centre-lock rotor tool. Before tightening, always verify that your specific hub uses the centre-lock standard, as this rotor is not compatible with 6-bolt hubs without an adapter.
Crucial installation steps include:
Regular maintenance involves cleaning the braking surface with an isopropyl alcohol-based cleaner and ensuring the rotor remains true to prevent pad rubbing.
