The ones on my K11 were worse than that some had actually fallen in half and disapeared. The goose was still riding it and wondering what the rattling was all about. No offence meant jo.

Did that happen while you were riding or did you just notice it on a stationary bike?

If the rotor comes completely off the carrier when you're hard braking (when they're most likely to fail completely) I'd guess then you'd be in a world of hurt. :o

WOW,  those look like they came off the Bug. Do you need some help with installation instructions or are you jiggy with that?
