Muel Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 This is on my Zona Zip.Brake: hope mono trial 06Rotor: hope mono trialRotor size: 160Brake pad: hopeWheel size: 20"Pretty standard but it works really well and I am really impressed. I prefer the 06 lever to the 07s because the blade is squarer, which matches my rear magura, and I prefer the look of the old levers.

RobinJI Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 Brake: BikeHut cable discRotor: BikeHutCable: Odysse linear slickLever: Avid AD3? (the one like the SD7s but without the speed dial adjustment.)Rotor size: 180mmBrake pad: standardWheel size: 24"Works suprisingly well for like 35 quid (25 for the break, 5 for the cable and 5 for the lever off a mate), feels really really nice, better feel than a BB7 imo, but not as much all out bite, still holds well though.
