don't worry they are only a little bigger - 260mm rather than 240mm discs
with the same calipers as the Granada's/ XR4x4's/ V6's.......

I've got some calipers I can weigh later, but I've got different discs

the caliper weighs 3.85kg

the granada disc weights 5.5kg
(the sierra bell has 5mm more offset, but is also a couple of mm smaller dia.)
