from san ysidro, ca usa Date Reviewed: July 13, 2003 Strengths: Modulation, more brake that you could ever need, crazy light even when compared to v brakes, no maintance needed, fluid wont strech, can even be made lighter by buying aluminum rotors from Stan. Weaknesses: The pads wear quick, front and rear in 6 months. But the worst part was that no one had them for a month, and I do mean any kind(any brand), finally found some on ebay. Also a bit expensive, on ebay 20.00 ea set Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 6 months Purchased At: LBS, came stock on bike Similar Products Used: nothing Bike Setup: Stock F1000SL

from Peterborough, ontario, canada Date Reviewed: September 23, 2001 Strengths: Man these brakes are nothing but strong. I have used them for trials and before i had arch rivals which were good but kept slipping. With the magura HS33's(yellow)i have not slipped hardly at all. I love these brakes. There wicked looking too!!!!!!!! Weaknesses: well setting them up kind of sucked. Yet once you get them set up there good to go for a long period of time unless you screw your wheel and have to adjust a bit.

from Barberton, OH Date Reviewed: August 1, 2000 Strengths: Much better control of braking-you go faster on any terrain that requires brakes, that's simply the bottom line. The pads are also very thick so they last long. They are great for wet conditions too. Weaknesses: These aren't the kind of "slap it on" product. At least the first time you install these (and once you're buddies try them, they'll get them and want you to put them on). They also add some weight, not that much, but maybe too much if you ride in dry conditions all the time and really like your V brakes. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Anything with dirt Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Similar Products Used: Hayes discs, Coda discs, a ton of different V brakes and cantilevers. Bike Setup: 2000 Gary Fisher Aluminum hardtail-Judy XC fork

from Andover, Hampshire, UK Date Reviewed: April 30, 2000 Strengths: Let me count the ways... Modulation like a thing with lots of modulation Maintenance...no sorry never heard of it Squeal...only a bit when bedding in the new pads pads go straight onto rim so no toe, no balance problems... you can control if you stop or not They work They're good Weaknesses: Nasty setup so some say, but pester your bike shop when U buy them and they'll fit them or a low cost. Now you're in control of when you go over the handlebars so there's no excuses Slightly less powerful than V's with no mods (tar etc.) You don't have to maintain them so you might have to GET A LIFE INSTEAD IF you have maggies and your friends have cables you'll never be able to ride their bike again...their brakes won't seem to work. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Trails? I don't ride trails? Trails are for local people! Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Similar Products Used: My old V's, made by ARSE Powermax V's, other cheapy ones. Bike Setup: Saracen X-ile done up for trials as much as I can afford, HS11's
