from Seattle, WA Date Reviewed: March 10, 2003 Strengths: Stopping power, lever feel, levers Weaknesses: Adjusting the pads requires you to hold the pad with one hand while adjusting (same for the LX at that time). Tightness of the pad is limited to the amount of pressure and stabilization you can provide to the pad as you are tightening it. Pad tightness is an issue for lower end brake models I think. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2 Years Purchased At: came on Schwinn MOAB Similar Products Used: Shimano LX, SRAM 9.0 Bike Setup: Steel X-cal with Mavic 221's, Fisher front hub, LX rear.
