Lake LX-006 Freerider, with Zoom dual crown fork, Deore components--with the exception of the hubs (they were Joy tech, now they are Formula), Brakes, Levers (were Deore dual control, swapped for Sachs Bandix 9-spd twist shift and Tekto brake levers), Titec Hellbent bars, Zoom threadless stem,Wellgo platform/SPD-style DH pedals, Weinmann Rims (originals were Sun Swift Horse), Kenda Tires, Tahoma seat pillar (original was Zoom), and Azonic Love Seat.
Bottom Line:
These brakes are ultra-finicky to set-up. The front brake flexes noticably. They are intolerant of too much length in brake housing. The odd-sized rear rotor makes replacement rough (its a 145mm--Hope makes one, but its expensive). The front is a relatively common 160mm. These brakes operated poorly with the Deore levers that came OEM with the bike, but the Tektro levers certainly improved things. These brakes aren't for upgrade. Better cheap Discs are available from RST, Suntour, Tektro, or Promax. If they came stock, they'll make do until you waste them.

Excluding that i can see no reason to buy any other disc brakes ie if they stopped me any quicker i would part company with the bike. Not done a lot of major downhills but sometimes they feel like there going to give up on really long downhills they never do and i think its a cable problem anyway.

Bottom Line:
i posted a comment about that product not long ago, how come it has been deletd from the board? this and other product have their strong a weak point, if you guys delete postings, how could other find what is the best product in the brake system? that is a wrong impression and a false "Publicity" for products. if you keep all the higher chillis, you will only make things harder on yourself. i tested that product, i puted my comment on this board and you guys deleted it when it is actually no true that all you see ain't what you will get. so i'm asking to anyone that read this to do your research first before buying any product. for me it looks like that someone is cheating around the posting on this board. So for the last time, i did tested that diatech brake and all i kept having was problem. at that first time, everything seems to work wonderfully, but i found out that after several KM or about 200 km, the caliper refuse to move away from the rotor, when it is wet, water gets inside the mechanical parts of the caliper causing the caliper to lock on the rotor, the outer and inner pads do brake apparts (buy some spares) and the pins (occasionally) get crooked making the caliper really hard to take off the bracket and move away from the rotor. yes it is true that i thought at first that it was a great product, but after owning it for about 4 to 6 months, maintening it was just a joke after each ride. So all said was that i moved away from that product after several accident that occured with that disc brake and after almost a third front wheel that almost locked, i went to my local bike shop and i took everything off my bike and said to my friends "return it and i want a Avid disc brake and order it NOW!" and so he did. i'm now with Avid mechanical and this baby is the best. i have it for about 2 or 3 months now and i never touched it. it is stable, braking power is amazing, the look is kewl, the power is freaking awesome, maintenance is almost none 'cause it is fully sealled up, no more drag and i gave to Avid a load of Chillis. even 5 wasn't enought. i gave that brake a load of hard work, mud, snow, sand, hills and you name it and that brake never failed me.

Bottom Line:
Bought kit of hub, Pro 9 levers and disc brake. Hub built up very well with Mavic 517 SUP. Levers worik great, dual mode setup. Disc brake was one of the recalled calipers. E-mail El Marco and 4 days later receive 2 brand new calipers, sickers and setup info tips. Excellent service from this company.
Couldn't get satisfactory performance from the front disc setup, the brake had to drag heavily to give any stopping power. Pulled caliper apart to check grease etc and found that the small magnet that holds the moving pad on was in little pieces and pad was at an uneven angle.
Replaced magnet from spare caliper and big improvement in setup and performance. No drag, good modulation and braking improving all the time. Use Brake Clean on pads and rotor = good braking.
Just need to get hold of some more magnets just in case.
This brake was 1/2 the price of the Avid setup and isn't that far behind in performance, so excellent value for money.

Bike Recall
Two companies based in Washington state are recalling about 5,000 bicycles because of faulty disc brakes that can stick and cause crashes.
DiaTech USA of Kenmore, Wash., manufacturer of the brakes, and Derby USA of Kent, Wash., the importer and distributor, have received one report of a man who suffered broken ribs after losing control of his bicycle when the brake stuck, the Consumer Product Safety Commission said Wednesday.
The brands and models of the recalled bicycles are Raleigh's M600, M800 and M8000; Diamondback's Zetec Comp and X-2; and Univega's DS950 and Alpina 700.
All the recalled bicycles are 2000 models, with ballistic spiral stop disc brakes labeled "DIATECH."
Raleigh, Diamondback and Univega bicycle dealers nationwide sold these bicycles from November 1999 through June 2000 for between $800 and $1,200.
The safety commission advises consumers to stop riding the bicycles immediately and return them to their dealers for free replacement of the front and rear brake calipers. For more information, consumers can call the safety commission at 1-800-638-2772 between 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. EST Monday through Friday.

Well i thaught that i might let you guys know about some tiny little thing. if i have done it, some have also done it, but i don't see anyone that posted it here, so i'll do it. Do not put any grease of any kind on the uper rod (the one protected by a ruber) Put light grease on the bottom rod only to give the best and smooth clearance of the caliper from the rotor. thank god i had a spare caliper, but if you put grease on the upper rod, the chemical reaction of the grease and the ruber make the ruber to stick on the road instead of moving away or have a smooth clearance of the rotor. so don't do what i did. Put only light grease on the bottom rod (the black plastic) AND IT WORKS WONDERFULLY. Beleive me, my caliper is no longer sticking on the rotor and it doesn't have the little bird singing anymore. haha!!! =) AGAIN 5X2 Chillis for you guys Kai =)
