No, all bike brake rotors are not the same. While most rotors are made from stainless steel, there are also rotors made from aluminum, titanium, and even carbon fiber. There are also different sizes and thicknesses of rotors. So, while all rotors may look similar, there are actually quite a few differences.
Thicker rotors are not necessarily better, but they may be more durable. Thicker rotors can handle more heat and are less likely to warp. However, they may also add weight to the vehicle and may not be necessary for all applications.
Bike brake rotors need to be replaced when they become worn out. Worn out brake rotors can cause the bike to brake less effectively, which can be dangerous.
There are a few different ways that you can determine what size rotor you need. One way is to look at the manufacturer’s recommendations. Another way is to use a rotor size calculator. You can also measure the rotors yourself.

These were purchased for my wife's e-fat bike. For the riding we do, the 160mm rotors that came with it were bare minimum. The steep Pacific Northwest mountains caused the 160mm rotors to burn out on lengthy descents.The two rotors in this kit were accurate out of the box. The only challenge was finding the proper adapters for the bike's Tektro brakes. I was unable to position the calipers as far inboard as I had hoped because to the wide contact path on the 200mm rotors and the wavy edge. The waved rotor edge would scrape against the caliper if it were any further inboard. In order to get as near as feasible, I actually used a grinder to minimize the thickness of the rear adaptor.When using these rotors, use sintered pads. This bike can now be stopped with ease thanks to a fantastic pad made by Truckerco that is compatible with Tektro and Shimano calipers.

As I bought a cheap mongoose bike, the rotors surged and pulsed when you applied the brakes, making it quite dangerous to brake. After using these, my pulse has completely disappeared. In all honesty, the front doesn't seem to hold as firmly, but I still need to adjust. I'm overjoyed with them.Update: They hold up much better now than when I initially received them after lots of riding. My breaks unfortunately make a loud, squeaking noise like an old bus, but I haven't yet troubleshooted for that. Still, I'm glad I switched from unsafe and ineffective brakes to ones that actually work, even if they are loud, which might be my fault.

QUIET RIDE - CenterLine track maximizes performance while minimizing vibration and noise for a quiet brake operation
COMPATIBILITY - SRAM Centerline rotor is compatible with all Avid and SRAM disc brakes and includes 6 attachment bolts for mounting
12-SPOKE DESIGN - One-piece steel design with 12 spokes optimizes the rotor strength and helps dissipate heat quickly to reduce warping and distortion
CONSISTENT FRICTION - Keeps the center of friction consistent throughout rotation, thereby minimizing vibration and offering consistent performance
CENTERLINE ROTOR - CenterLine cutting edge design provides smooth engagement, consistent performance, and quiet running braking surface

This time, SRAM significantly improved their rotor game. The notorious Avid HS rotors' deafening screech has been eliminated. I've driven these vehicles through mud, streams, and fine dust, and while I have occasionally heard a few little screeches immediately after braking, the sound immediately stops as the brakes have clamped the disc for a few revs.No more publicly broadcasting your fear and how frequently you slam on the brakes on full descents. The new Guide brakes make a fantastic complement to them. Strong strength, fantastic modulation, and oh-so-sweet stillness!

These rotors are excellent name brands at a reasonable cost. I've put these rotors to the test on some lengthy downhills while carrying 250 pounds of gear. Excellent braking, no warping, and no fade. They also came with fresh screws. The only drawback I can think of is that they aren't two pieces, but this pair is still less expensive than a single two-piece rotor!

Two separate wheel sets (I purchased four disks) look excellent and perform flawlessly when mounted on my Giant Revolt using either a direct bolt or a center mount adaptor. They still look new, and the finish is excellent.

These have not yet caused any issues. Using these screws, I installed a new rotor that I had also ordered. Even though I had to remove the rotor because it was rubbing and not true, there were no issues when I replaced it with the other rotor after using the same screws. Even at the advised torque, I had no problems with them stripping or breaking. The allen keys all seemed to be either too big or too little and loose in the hole, so I did use a Torx driver.

These rotors have been my go-to for years, and I adore them. I recently purchased a new bike, and it has an additional rotor. I despised how they required so much pressure before stopping. After switching to these, braking performance dramatically improved. I use XTR brakes and resin XTR pads.
Rotors go bad when they become warped or damaged. Warped rotors can cause the brake pads to wear out prematurely and can cause the vehicle to vibrate when braking. Damaged rotors can cause the vehicle to pull to one side when braking.
If you notice that your car is taking longer to stop than usual, or if you hear a grinding noise when you brake, it may be time to change your rotors. Rotors can wear down over time from use, and if they are not replaced, they can eventually cause your brakes to fail.
Bike brake discs typically last for around 2,000 miles before they need to be replaced. However, this can vary depending on the type of bike, how often it is ridden, and the conditions it is ridden in. If you ride your bike regularly in wet or gritty conditions, then your brake discs may need to be replaced more frequently.
Most bike rotors will last for around 2,000 miles before they need to be replaced. However, this will vary depending on the type of riding that you do. If you ride in muddy or wet conditions, then your rotors will wear out faster. If you do a lot of hard braking, then your rotors will also wear out faster.
Disc brakes are one of the most important safety features on your vehicle, so it’s important to know how long they should last. Most disc brake rotors will last between 30,000 and 70,000 miles, but this varies depending on driving habits and conditions. If you do a lot of stop-and-go driving in city traffic, your brake rotors will wear down faster than if you mostly drive on highways. Similarly, if you regularly tow a trailer or carry heavy loads in your vehicle, your brakes will also wear out more quickly. Fortunately,
It takes about an hour to change rotors. You'll need a few tools, including a socket wrench, and it's helpful to have a friend to help. First, you'll need to remove the old rotors. This is done by loosening the lug nuts, jacking up the car, and removing the wheels. Then, you'll need to remove the brake calipers (the part that holds the brake pads). Be careful not to lose the caliper bolts! Next, you'll remove the old rotors and install the new ones. Finally, you'll put the cal
