They seem surprisingly good! Ali ran one for a while when he was doing a demo tour with the Clan and had no problems at all, even after he got back and started riding 'normally' again. Bearing in mind Ali's an ape and destroys/contaminates/messes with every disc brake generally within about a week of fitting it, this is pretty much the highest review it can get

The only 'problem' is that it lacks the sort of adjustment you get on the MT4, Echo TR or Hope Tech Trial brake, but Ali's didn't really feel like it needed it in fairness. Equally, the BAT system on the MT4 gives the lever a bit of a two-stage feel which isn't ideal.

I can definitely recommend them!

I've got them on my Koxx 1049 and they are amazing. Really good feel to the lever in my opinion. They are comfortable on my fingers and feel solid. They bedded in within about 15 minutes (just squirt some water on the rotors and ride round dragging the brakes gently). The front and rear feel as good as each other too! Usually when I've had front and rear discs the front one has been great but the back one hasn't been up to much!

The only slight downside I've noticed is that the rear pads are clicking a bit. I just need to whip them off and give the backs of the pads a quick sanding to remove the paint and that should solve that though.

I'd say take the plunge and you wont be disappointed!

ive been running the mt2 on the front of my stock, i run a 203mm rotor, the brake is amazingly powerful and the lever feels comfy and with to pain whatsoever on the finger, i would reccoment this brake, you wont be disapointed, mine bedded in withing 20 minutes, just took the bike down a massive hill and kept tapping the lever going down the hill, i donme it twice and the brake was bedded in, the power is amazing
