Strengths: huge amounts of power exelent modulation price looks custom rotors
Weaknesses: some squealing dodgy pads
Overall: i have a front with a 185 disc, and this thing can stop me from any speed i have reached so far (upto about 50 MPH on road) and the only problems i have had so far were some dodgy non-squeal pads that hope sent me, unfortunatly they started crumbling and went squidy but hope replaced them within 48hrs of me calling them to ask if they were ok to use.
but basically these brakes WILL stop you no matter what happens, the only real niggle i have with them is a high-pitch squeal under braking but that doesn't affect performance at all, they don't have the sheer bite of magura's but they'll stop you as fast as you need to stop, if not faster and they still have control with it.
Strengths: easton RAD tubing headtube with renforcments the size of an FSA pig lower headset cup (huge) geometry price paintjobs from heaven brunell bridge chainstay yoke. it actually fits me warranty from heaven (2yr no shit, you brake it they give you a new one!!)
Weaknesses: excuse me? you say what now? nope none of them.
Overall: i've had it just under a week, but iv'e clocked up over a 100 miles in that time. it makes me ride harder and faster than i ever have before, it feels funny to start with as yur weight is so far forwards it feels like you've got the seat up too far. even better than all that lot, it fits me but then i do have an XL... sorry the XL. it has a paintjob that takes pimp into a new generation on shinyness. it's a very tall bike (21") but the seattube finishes 3" above the top tube so its like an 12" frame for standover height. basically this is the best designed and built frame a have ever seen, it climbs, descends and does anything else you want it to, even jumping! the reliabilty means about as much as much as nyynnggghar but i can't see anything going wrong with it in the near (or distant) future.
Overall: these are a must for all magura users. they're not just for the trials riders. don't use them at the front if you like to pull the lever really really hard or you are going to A+E.
