Yeah I've got black diamond discs and pads on mine and I'd say they're pretty fcuking good!!!

The problem Ian FRST had with the warping isnt down to bad quality of the black diamond disc, its the greenstuff pads, greenstuff pads although very good, make any discs warp due to their high copper content. Seen this happen loads of times with greenstuff.

Mine are fine and the only downside being they have a pre wear taper so the pads bed in really nice, meaning the whole of the pad doesnt make contact to the disc for a while until its worn in a bit, but when they do, they're really good!!!
As mental as I am on motors!!!
