So now that the rotors have been out awhile, are the XT ice rotors any better than regular rotors? What about the new freeza? Im ordering XT brakes and will need rotors too.

I don't know if XTs will do much for DH level heat, but I am curious about the saints with the extra tin foil in between.

behind you with a snap pop
Allright stop, collaborate and listen
Get Ice XT's are you gonna be missing
Something grabs your rotor tightly
Lets you flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will you always stop? Yo I don't know
But Ice XT's been down with me for 2 years Yo.
And to the extreme I rock a trail like vandal
Light up a gap and wax a stump like a candle

Too cold.

Not to divert one's thoughts from high top fades and parachute pants or anything, but I've used a fairly good number of the ice tech rotors without the new razor fins. They still heat up just like old one pieces from what I can tell. And they seem to come from the factory kind of warped, maybe from pinning them to the interior mount. The ones I've gotten have been a little unstraight.

The pins are staying tight though. Which is more than I can say for the centerlock versions when they came out.

Will the XTs brakes be enough for Whistler? My XOs are crap after a few days. Im tired of fading.

does installing new rotors really help? i never thought about it or replaced them.. after blue mountain yesterday my zee's were getting faded
Depends, are you running 203 front and back? If so then yeah, the Ice-Tech should help a little.
