Cons
A little noisy
Review
These are some sweet freaking brakes! I have never experienced stopping power like I have with these on my DH big with a pair of big 'ole rotors. These things will bring you down from 45 mph to nothing in no time. When one of my friends jumped on to give my rig a try, he said that he was more afraid of the brakes' stopping power than he was the trail! Once you're used to them, these brakes will rock your stopping world!
Pros
They keep me from hitting EVERY tree.
Cons
Either there is a turkey stuck in my rear hub, or these are some noisy brakes.
Review
My first hydraulic, these guys have tripled my confidence. I know it is an old chestnut, but better brakes do make you faster. Add the fact that they have been low maintenance and now headache, yeah, I like these bad boys.
Pros
For entry level I believe these are the right brakes to use. So far very reliable easy to adjust and replace the pads. Long down hills on the brakes. I have not had any problems.
Cons
Not adjustable...looking for the upgrade.
Review
Good brakes..good for weekend fun rides.
Pros
They stop my 200lbs @$$ on the steepest trails with no problem. Have not had a single issue with these breaks. They even work perfectly when wet and or muddy.
Cons
None so far, had them for the last year
Review
Anyone who doesn't want to spend more for the same preformance.
on October 21, 2008
Pros
Simple use no extra adjustments. Crisp feeling...Great for first time riders you don't need more than this.
Cons
A little bit short on stopping power for heavier riders
Review
A great brake for the occasional rider and first timer flawless braking for a fraction of the cost
