chris_trials Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 I bought a set of the 2011 HS33's about november last year to replace my '05 and vee setup. I got the bike out this afternoon to have a little bash around and the piston arm had snapped where it mounts to the lever. I bled it before the winter with water/antifreeze and kept it inside an insulated workshed so that i could still use it in the cold weather. I was just wondering if anyone else has had any problems with them or heard about issues to do with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

williams Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 They are great, I found my 2011 much much better than the 05's I own now... Anyway I haven't seen or had that problem before And I know a fair few people who run them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny00135 Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 TheLeroyHuk argued they were the best brake he's ever used.. Many people on this forum are now disliking them even more... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake. Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Gotta say I loved my 2011s when I had them, I'd probably use them over 05s when I can be bothered. More interested in trying out the tensile replacement body first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valk Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 2011 are powerful, but the quality is horrible, I wouldn't trade 05's for 11's. I've had 2 pairs and they are really the worst brake ever, not in performance, but in quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
