Not sure about the other stuff but the rotors can be scrapped. Just drop then in the metal recycle truck in the parking lot of Johns Market in Multnomah Village.

To follow up on yesterday's post:
Sounds like there are a lot of unhappy wives out there with grease stains on their $100 jeans!!

I'm not a totally tree hugger here but lately I've been thinking about the impact of my own bike waste. Questions I've been thinking about:

What happens to the waste water when I wash the rags? Is this really acceptable? Where do I dump the grime after degreasing a chain. Not to mention the countless brake pads I go through a year. Are those even recyclable? Rotors and disc brake pads, old torn up seats, I've just been thinking lately that it seems wrong for that crap to just end up in a land fill. Guess I was looking for something a bit more in terms of a discussion.

Thanks
