bing Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 I've got one on my mod. it's works perfectly well for me, and everyone who's rode my bike says it's amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam T Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 mine was shocking - No hold, no bite. Had a good lever feel though. Maybe if i upgraded to a different disc and hope pads it would of been better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Ive had a go with a few on others bikes and theyve felt pretty nice, with hope pads and discs though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ULtrialsguy Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 I wrote the only review of them on tartys, I think they're a decent brake with plenty of power. A good cheaper alternative to the hope brakes. I've had them for a pretty long time now and their stating to fade a tad but I heard all disk brakes do that. My mates hopes aren't as powerful as when he first got them. When I get a frame with rear disk mounts I'll more than likely be getting another tr for the rear.

Greetings Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Once they bed in they're fine. But they take absolutely ages to run in since the rotors are very rough. I've even thought of some sort of lathe attachment to be able to run the brakes in before they are installed on bikes. So yeah, good brake with nice feel but better run them with a different rotor unless you have a lot of patience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isitafox Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 I run them front and rear on my inspired but use some cheap (£12.99) shimano levers, hope 180 rotors and pads and they are without a doubt the finest disc brakes I've used before. Absolutely rock solid and no worries about the lever leaking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williams Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 One of my mates have them on the front and rear, they are now leaking but he thinks they're awesome! They actually leak quite often... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VAMPIRE V12 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 I'm running at the moment on my zoot and they were bad this morning i went for a ride on them and decided to jump into a water fountain and afterwards they have been getting better and better so i guess the water does them a lot of good even though i had them for 9 month and they had no bite haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
