Why we love it
We love that this rotor chases every gram without giving up real braking.
- 01The steel braking track is 1.8mm thick with rounded, machined edges, so it stops well and sheds heat while staying light.
- 02Grade 5 titanium rivets and washers hold the track to the carbon carrier, a detail you can see up close.
- 03It was developed with the UAE Team Emirates World Tour team and race-tested at the Giro d'Italia, and that pedigree shows in every gram it saves.

What's included
- One Carbon-Ti X-Rotor SteelCarbon 3 6-Bolt rotor
Will it fit your bike?
Compatible with
- Hubs with the 6-bolt disc mount, on road and gravel bikes
- Rotor sizes 140mm, 160mm, and 180mm, so you can match the size your bike is built for
Not compatible with
- Center Lock hubs on their own (add the Carbon-Ti X-Rotor Center Lock Adapter Kit, sold separately, or choose the Carbon-Ti X-Rotor SteelCarbon 3 Center Lock)
- Campagnolo and Fulcrum wheels built for the AFS disc mount (choose the Carbon-Ti X-Rotor SteelCarbon 3 X-AFS instead)
- A rotor size your brake calipers are not set up for, without the correct caliper adapter
Confirm before ordering
Two things decide fit: the mount and the size. Your hubs need the 6-bolt disc mount, and the rotor size you select must match what your frame, fork, and brake calipers are built for.
Moving to a bigger or smaller rotor can need a different caliper mount adapter.
To fit this 6-bolt rotor to a Center Lock hub instead, add the Carbon-Ti X-Rotor Center Lock Adapter Kit, sold separately. If you are buying for a Center Lock hub, the Carbon-Ti X-Rotor SteelCarbon 3 Center Lock is the simpler choice.
Questions
What rotor size should I choose?
Match the size your frame, fork, and brake calipers are built for, usually 140mm, 160mm, or 180mm. Moving to a different size can need a different caliper mount adapter, so check your setup or ask your mechanic.
Do these come with mounting bolts?
No. This 6-bolt rotor ships without bolts. Most disc rotor bolts fit it, and the Carbon-Ti X-Rotor Titanium Bolt Kit is the matched titanium set for one wheel, sold separately.
Can I use these on a Center Lock hub?
Yes, with the Carbon-Ti X-Rotor Center Lock Adapter Kit, sold separately. It lets a 6-bolt rotor mount on a Center Lock hub, and its low-profile lockring suits hubs built for 12, 15, or 20mm thru-axles. If your hubs are already Center Lock, the Carbon-Ti X-Rotor SteelCarbon 3 Center Lock is the simpler choice.
Are these UCI approved?
Yes, they comply with UCI regulations. The disc profile has rounded, CNC-machined edges.
Will these fit Campagnolo or Fulcrum wheels?
Yes, if they use the standard 6-bolt mount. Campagnolo and Fulcrum wheels built for the AFS disc mount are the exception: those need a rotor made for AFS, and this one is not. For an AFS wheel, choose the Carbon-Ti X-Rotor SteelCarbon 3 X-AFS. If you are not sure which disc mount your wheels use, check their specification before ordering.
