Formula developed the Mix-Master because the SRAM XX/X.0 clamps interfere with the Formula R1 clamps. In order to make it easier to mount these two ultralight XC components, a combination mount was needed. Because the Mix-Master replaces the rear portion of the brake clamp, this system is actually a few grams lighter than the original setup.

Strengths: fells good works well
Weaknesses: 3mm alloy hex screws too weak for load snap below 4.0nm recommended tension on carbon bars. 50 dry bitumen stops to bed in and avoid screeching and brake fade
Bottom Line:
Replaced 3mm hex with T15 torque screws and keep spares in kit.
