Ian, what are you referring to when you say "think slicer hat"?

If you are running the thick slicer hats with longer
studs, expect to run through wheel bearings somewhat
frequently. For me, that's reason #542 to get thinner
hats and thicker rotors and dump my slicers forever.
It's a good idea if you have ample spoke to caliper
clearance with your rims.
