Another factor in my choice for brakes this time around is that the Hope's come with everything under one part number- rotors, caliper, levers, adapters & hardware. The other mfg's like Formula and Shimano make you piece the system together. I think with the formula's you need to order the rotor you want, the adaptor for that rotor size, and then the caliper and lever. Shimano makes you order the lever seperate. for me, it's a pain, and opens up the possibility of ordering the wrong thing. If you just go to your lbs and have them piece it together, you may save some hassle at the cost of more $$.
The only thing I had to order seperate is the dt centerlock to 6 bolt rotor adapter, which looks REAL sweet, BTW...
