Whats up all? I have never riden disk hubs w/out the rotors on, do any of you plug up the holes for the bolts when they are on a rim-brake equipped bike? Or do you just leave them as is, and clean them out? I don't want to compromise the hubs, as they'll get rotors eventually. Thanks for any input.

You could do it either way, but to save you some work you could just put some screws in the holes as plugs. This way you don't have to clean them out later.

wax? Cheap, light, water proof...just a thought. Thanks.

.....impossible to remove completely, attracts dirt, looks like shiznat....

Seriously, just insert the bolts in the holes. The weight factor is negligible - if you are really worried about weight I'm sure that one can obtain Ti bolts somewhere.

Yup, the wax was just a thought, the bolts are in. Thanks...hopefully there will be new rotor there soon!
