Strengths:    After 7 years on Avid juicy and them being now obsolete it was time for a change. No more adjustment for the sake of it time for simple and reliable. The race x2 is as good as it gets for XC no problems and I don't expect any.
So simple to bleed unlike the other brands avid and formula. Non of that have got it right on the first run.


Weaknesses:    Naming convention you could end up with ugly tech leaver with lots of useless knobs on.

Bottom Line:   
keep it simple!

Strengths:    Light, feel and power. Cool looks when matched with hope pro 2 hubs & floating 160 rotors. Easy set up just ride. They stop in the wet very stylish and rare compared to avid etc.

Weaknesses:    need to come with the match maker clamps.

Bottom Line:   
Buy these if you want something different that just works! no set up issues fit and ride.
