Add a review (form opens in right column) reviewed by guest on December 19, 2009   Pros Decent power, but the best feature is the smooth lever action. The pin and ability to remove the pads without taking off the wheel is another good feature. Cons When the pads are worn down the caliper pistons tend to stick. Verdict A decent set up but not a fan of the smallish pistons which I have had sieze up due to the pads worn low. Now if your a person who regularly check out there equipment then it shouldn't be an issue. reviewed by RowdyREBEL   on December 11, 2008   Pros Awesome stopping power with little to no effort. The brakes broke in super fast. I have had no problems with fade, nice firm feel when applying the brakes. I have Absolute faith in the brakes while riding down extreme trails. They look great too! Cons nothing! Verdict Buy these if you want great performance with superior looks! I have riden these breaks hard through the mud, dirt, rocks and snow and no problems whatsoever.
