My backup bike has older (2005) BB7 brakes. While the brakes aren't bad they are extremely loud. I don't ride this bike enough to justify upgrading to hydro's (although it's tempting after putting XT brakes on my new bike!) but I may replace the rotors. While reinstalling the brakes, I noticed that one of the rotors is a bit warped. When I spin the wheel with the brake pads in as close as I can without them touching the rotor, the rotor does rub one of the pads every rotation.
Is there a quieter, inexpensive rotor I can replace the original Avid rotors with? I see dozens of rotors on PricePoint but don't have a clue if any of them are better/quieter than the original Avids.
