Ali C Posted March 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 I never thought I would leave vees, but I was really interested in trying somthing different to a maggie.I dont like the shape of magura levers and I am really scared of snapping them. This deng brake should be a lot better.As soon as I opened the box I could tell it was in another legue! Its machined really nicley and has some really nice details (like the hose comming out next to the bars, almost impossible to hit). It really reminds me of a hope mono trials in how its machined.Performance wise, I am REALLY impressed, the main reason I had a vee was because I would get arm pump with a maggie because it was hard to pull, with a little fiddle my brake is now easier to pull than my vee was! Its got a lot more bite than a vee, I can only hope it has the same hold!The weight is good too, lighter than a maggie and a lot lighter than my vee setup.and yes bigman, you can have your adaptors back (after koxx days if thats ok? got a lot to do tomorrow!!)put new stickers on too.
