Galfer Wave 6-Bolt Disc Rotor – High Performance MTB Brake Rotor

The Galfer Wave Disc Rotor 6-Bolt is a benchmark in braking technology, designed to provide riders with exceptional performance on any trail. Its innovative wave design not only reduces weight but also enhances cooling efficiency, ensuring your brakes stay sharp and fade-free during intense descents. Crafted from high carbon stainless steel and manufactured in Spain, this rotor delivers reliable stopping power with minimal noise and wear, making it the perfect upgrade for trail, enduro, downhill, and e-MTB enthusiasts.

Engineered for strength and durability, the Galfer Wave Rotor features a two-piece floating construction that dissipates heat more effectively than traditional rotors. This reduces the risk of warping and vibration, giving you a smooth and consistent braking feel even under high stress. Its anodised alloy carrier adds both rigidity and style, creating a rotor that stands up to the toughest mountain bike conditions without compromising on weight.

Available in multiple sizes from 160 mm to 223 mm, the Galfer Wave Disc Rotor offers flexibility to suit a variety of riding styles and bike setups. Thanks to its universal 6-bolt mounting system, it’s compatible with most major brake brands, including Shimano, SRAM, Magura, Hope, and TRP. Whether you’re pushing limits on technical trails or cruising gravel roads, this rotor ensures dependable performance and confidence-inspiring control.

What It’s Good For

• Providing powerful, fade-free braking on long, technical descents
• Reducing rotor weight without sacrificing strength or durability
• Enhancing heat dissipation to prevent brake fade and warping
