I'm guessing that "light bee" comes with downhill mtn bike style brakes with 8" disc rotors.. for more front brake leverage and bite (to endo, lift the rear wheel like trials) you could probably run larger diameter 9" / 224mm rotors such as from Hayes.. i think some ppl on here are even running 10" rotors on some of their ebikes (Rix) ???
Yah Natas, I have both 9" and 10" rotors and have ran them. The 10" is fuqn huge and heavy. The 9 inch with an Avid BB2 Mechanical caliper is more than enough for a 100 pound 50+mph Ebike. Thats my favorite and the old Hayes 9" are getting harder and harder to come by.
