Just bought new bike with disc brakes. If I buy an upgrade wheelset do brake discs (rotors) come with? Or do you have to buy them separately?

Given you've just bought the bike, leave upgrades alone for a while. Get some mileage on the bike before you spend more money on it.– Criggie ♦Commented May 5, 2019 at 11:07

Just transfer your old rotors to the new wheel. All you'll need is an allen key and some thread lock.– JamesCommented May 5, 2019 at 17:35

Normally the rotors will be separate. Also, there are two kinds of rotor mounts: 6-bolt and centerlock. You can get an adapter to put a 6-bolt rotor on a centerlock hub (I don't think you can go the other way), so it's something to be aware of.
