I have a set of Marchenesi Forged Magnesium that came on my V4 25 Anniversario 916, VERY low mileage, if you are local to SoCal I’ll give you the SC3 tires that are on there that were only used for a few sighting laps, then taken off the bike.
I also have a set of carbon ceramic SICOM T-Drive rotors WITH the SICOM pads that are bedded to the rotors. These rotors change the game on brake and weight, they do not need to heat up to work well like previous generation Carbon Ceramic rotors, have a progressive initial bite so they make trail breaking easier with more finesse and a better feel, but then they ramp up quickly to stop as well as Z04 pads on Steel Rotors. Most importantly they reduce rotating mass by about 5 pounds on the front wheel, so the bike feels way lighter and flicks MUCH easier side to side.
Buying these used is actually BETTER than buying them new, because they do not wear when using the SICOM pads, they are designed to pass material back and forth from rotor to pad, no brake dust because there is no wear, just material bonding back and forth from rotor to pad. But that makes them kind of a pita to bed properly because you have to heat cycle them in a very particular way to get the pad material bedded onto the rotors properly, which in turn dials up the breaking power, that already done on these.
These rotors are also typically on 6 month or more backorder, so it’s a better than new set of rotors that you don’t have to wait 6 months for.
I cannot speak highly enough of this pad and rotor combination, I hate to sell them but moving on to another project. The combination of incredible braking power with the ability to finesse the brakes, and the crazy reduction in rotating mass make these a game changer.
$3900 for the wheels
$2900 for the rotors and matching bedded pads
Tires only come with wheels if local to save shipping costs.
