If you are using 6 bolt hubs and rotors, make sure they are compatible. By this, I am referring to an issue that American Classic had with their Disc 130 hub (which I use on my commuter bike). Some rotors are designed with "fingers" that attach to the hub versus a more solid center flange. The finger-type design can cause the hub flange to crack. There is a workaround though:
