    Favoriate Trail:Kalpalinna
    Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
    Purchased At:activebike
    Strengths:Really good modulation.Power.Looks and craftmanship.Xc light.Adjustment don't need tools.
    Weaknesses:Price.Maybe lever adjust space could be more.
    Similar Products Used:Magura julie (old school;), avid juicy 3, shimano xt
    Bike Setup:Canondale perp stock setup with e13 guide and more to go..
    Bottom Line:Yeah this the one model.It has lazer edged logos on cylinder and gm logo.Craftmanship shines all the way. First I thought what a crap these brakes are but until I get used to them they are super great. I wasnt familiar with these kind of modulation and they needed quite a lot "drive in" until they are what they are mentioned to be. So they are best brakes what I have ridden. You don't understand these modulation and power until you have ridden these.You have plenty of modulation and power even on steep courses they don't feil.You can use only one finger to brake and I like that a lot.I use 180 r/f and thats enough.I weight with gear on 200lbs.And did I mention that these have made only 250 pairs..:)
