Todd,

I replaced my rotors last yr and asked the same question. The answer I
got from the Vendor is below.

Rotors do not come with bearing races pressed in. If you are buying
rotors and bearings at the same time and request that we put the races
in before we ship them out, we would be happy to put them in for you.

Thank You,

Peter

I thought this would be a common question and have searched this and The Samba's archive list, but haven't found anything addressing this issue and am tired of scrolling.
