A "Floating Disc" isn't as rigidly mounted to the wheel, allowing some movement. Mounted this way, less heat is generated by braking and less heat means better braking, less warpage, etc. It's become the standard for sport bikes, but not as necessary in a cruiser-style bike. "Motorcyclist" magazine had an interesting article on bike brakes a month or two back, so I learned something at the beach....

I went with a EBC floater and that seemed to be the fix.
How would the floating disc solve the problem? Does this imply
that Triumph uses substandard parts? These are things I want
to know before buying the bike and learning the hard and
expensive way.
