a All Mountain Rider Date Reviewed: July 22, 2012 Strengths: They're more effective than anything else at this price point. They're powerful enough that a handful of brakes would easily send me over the handlebars, and I'm 170lbs. They're even better than the Avid Juicy 3s's fitted to my FR bike, and are FAR easier to bleed. Weaknesses: Useless when wet; they just squeak and don't stop. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Laggan Duration Product Used: Six Months Similar Products Used: Avid Juicy 3, Hayes Stroker 9 Bike Setup: Boardman Team FS 2010 XC bike, Kona Stinky 2007 FR/DH

from manchester,, uk Date Reviewed: March 1, 2011 Strengths: they have moments of power which make me think that they are excellent brkes, but at other times utter rubbish Weaknesses: dont look very good, they look cheap and budget in the cheap black colour alot of the time i am squeezing the lever and hoping that i would stop, on other hydraulic brakes and some mechanicls, 1 finger braking works, but on these, at times, i have to use 3 fingers and pull as hard as i can to atually get them to do anything. i also fear that too much pressure will break the seals/hose. there is also alot of movement of the lever before the pads are any where near the rotor Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 1 Year Purchased At: Halfords - came with Similar Products Used: clarks s2 avid bb5 hayes sole Bike Setup: 180 mm front 160mm rear
