Center Lock is quicker/easier on and off, looks cleaner, and the anodized lock rings look great.
Six-bolt can be tightened anywhere with a T-25, there’s the redundancy of 6-bolts, and my expensive hubs don’t have an interface that can wear over time.
I know, I know, everyone with Center Lock has never had a rotor come loose on the trail, or any other issues, and regularly bolt checks their bike. Except for all the CL rotors coming through the shop when I was wrenching that were loose or not tight.
I’m an advocate for six-bolt but recognize it’s a losing battle as with me v. e~bikes.
