## Overview

The Shimano SMRT56M Disc Brake rotor is a 160mm, lightweight (200g) metal rotor designed for IS six-bolt hubs. Featuring cooling holes for heat management and supplied with anti-loosen fixing bolts, it delivers durable, powerful braking optimized for resin pads. Ideal for year-round cycling, it combines Shimano’s trusted engineering with easy installation and reliable stopping power.

## Description

Shimano RT56 rotors are designed to be durable and powerful. Note: In the case of carbon levers, wash them by using a soft cloth. Be sure to use a neutral detergent. Otherwise, the material may get damaged, and the strength may be affected. Avoid leaving the carbon levers in places where high temperatures are present. Also keep them well away from fire. When the bicycle wheel has been removed, it is recommended that pad spacers should be installed. Do not depress the brake lever while the wheel is removed. If the brake lever is depressed without the pad spacers installed, the pistons will protrude further than is normal. If that happens, consult a dealer. Use soapy water or a dry cloth when carrying out cleaning and maintenance of the brake system. Do not use commercially-available brake cleansers or silencing agents, as they can cause damage to parts such as seals. Products are not guaranteed against natural wear and deterioration from normal use and aging. For maximum performance we highly recommend SHIMANO lubricants and maintenance products.

Review: Very pleased - Very high quality rotas. A strong design with lots of cooling holes. Easy to fit. Substantially heavier than the old ones I removed. Lots of extra stopping power! I'm using these on a hybrid bike. desertcart was the cheapest place I could find these rotas. I've previously tried bikehut and lifeline branded rotas, but found they were of a more inferior quality. It it always well-worth combining new rotas with new sets of brake pads at the same time. I found these Clarks ones (also sold by desertcart) are a good match Clarks Organic Disc Brake Pads for Shimano Deore Br-M515/M475/M525/M465/M495, Tektro Auriga Comp./Dracom Moto Aquila/HDC-300/Mota Expect your brakes to be very squeeky for the first couple of miles. They need an opportunity to bed-in and for any residue oil / solvents applied at the factory to burn off.
Review: Brilliant stopping power, great price for replacing yearly. - Brilliant quality, bought these to replace the original disc rotors that came with my Cannondale Badboy after contamination caused them to slip. These rotors happen to be the same rotors that came on my new bike Cannondale CAAD12 2019. The stopping power along with my new pads is brilliant and feels like new again. The package came with the rotors, 6 bolts & two spacers. At this price you can afford to replace them once a year to keep your brakes sharp.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it come with 2 disc brakes or only one?**
A: Only one disc

**Q: Will this fit a honda cbr600f4i 2003 model**
A: No, definitely not!  This is for a bicycle not a motorcycle.

**Q: Hi does anyone know if i can use resin and semi metallic with these brake discs or do they have to just be resin?**
A: They are marketed and clearly marked as "resin pad only"  If you were to try anything else warranty would be void & you would need to closely monitor wear

**Q: Will this fit my bike, where I currently have an RT51?**
A: it is a straight swap as long as your RT51 is 160mm

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality discs
*by A***R on 30 April 2018*

Great quality discs. Bought to replace a bent disc on my Wife's new boardman hybrid. The bike was collected from a long way from home and we didn't notice the bent disc until we got home. At this price and with a quick amazon prime delivery it was a better option than taking the bike back to the shop to get repaired.
