disc brake bent..... tektro a2 160
So I have a warped disc on the rear of my mtb (rockhard sport disc) anyways.... i can't seem to find a exact replacement online... it says the following on the disc
tektro
160
a2
i can find tektro 160's but non say "a2" on them
what does the a2 designate if anything?
TIA

It isnt that bad, i was thinking of coaxing it but wasnt sure that was a good idea with a spinning peice of metal.... designed to keep me from falling flat on my face 
but yeah I will try that...still want to know what the A2 is about

Either buy a rotor truing tool or take the wheel to the LBS and have them do it.
Otherwise any 160mm rotor will do as a replacement.

I have two different Tektro discs on my bike. pretty much any 160 will work, as the above member said. You might need to readjust the caliper in or out depending if you are switching to or away from concentric/scalloped rotors.
