Formula Brakes 4 Racing Freeride Disc Brake System
Product Description4 Racing Freeride / Downhill...... MOTO Lever with 4 piston caliper. This brake rocks ! The freeride is a cost sensitive alternative to the Mega powerful Downhill version with 205 mm rotor in front. This brake is very powerful and we strongly suggest to only use it with an equal strong fork. The new robust MOTO levers have split perches, on the fly reach adjust. Lots of extra fluid in the oversized reservoir.

from Porthcawl, South Wales, UK Date Reviewed: August 2, 2003 Strengths: AWESOME POWER!! I went for the 185 on the front and its eyepopping! not as much modulation as the 165 on the rear however! Standard formula pads work great if not a little expensive! (although they do last a while) work excellently in all conditions! Weaknesses: first front brake was delivered faulty, one phonecall to formula and a replacement was sent! excellent service. no other problems so far!
