Strengths:    Very adjustable, east acces to adjustments, great modulation, insane stopping power, build quality, looks.

Weaknesses:    None of yet. Maybe they are a tad on the heavier side.

Bottom Line:   
Got these for an aggresive AM build. They have been great. Spent the weekend in Ashalnd which really put them through their paces. Lots of prolonged heavy braking DH runs. Brakes didnt over heat and didnt lose any stopping power. Plus they are super easy to adjust on the fly. Modulation is great, and again easily adjusted along with lever reach etc. If you are considering purchasing these stop considering and just buy them. You will not regret it.

Strengths:    POWER, Modulation, poppet cam, tool free reach adjust,

Weaknesses:    noisy when wet

Bottom Line:   
For XC riding these are very powerful and haven't faded once on me...the poppet cam really works and I find myself using it quite frequently along with the reach adjust. I've got about 400 miles on them and haven't had any issues. Great set of brakes, good job Hayes!
