..........for XC racing mainly?
Used XT's last year, v. powerful but not too much control (modulation?) Formula seem to get good write ups.
Looking for a lightweight set up, does this fit the bill, any other suggestions without having to sell bodyparts?
cheers
much better than XT iv had both trust me
yes, great and light brakes, but I notice on the other thread today that they don't seem to have a uk distributor any more, so hope they don't need any help.
Mine have been fine fwiw, just the plastic bushings on lever and barrel pivots getting a bit rattly and bled once a year.
They're not particularily light. Though not heavy either. And IMO give slightly worse modulation than my old XTs, though more power and better reliability under hard use. But they're [i]great[/i] brakes. And cheap just now as well. I don't see them much as a race brake personally, more as a general do-it-all.
