That sounds amazing, but which 'approach' to the rotor would be covered?
It would need to be above it. I find that most often when they get wet, dirty and noisy it's because of the water falling onto them from the tire. As long as I drive over puddles at certain speed then this doesn't happen but when I slow down enough then the water starts dripping onto the rotors and calipers.
Fair enough! My favourite track at home runs down a river valley (its more of a MTB/enduro thing, too) and crosses the river ~8 times, so there's a lot of rough wear on the bottom bracket and rotors generally getting wet from all angles...
Some sort of shroud would be great!
