Review on JGbike Upgraded Shimano MT200 Hydraulic Disc Brake Set For Mountain Bikes: Ideal For XC Trail, E-Bike, And Fat Bike – The Ultimate Solution For A Mechanical Disc Brake Upgrade by Reggie Higdem

Revainrating 5 out of 5

great upgrade for tekro novela mechanical disc brakes

For the money, happy I didn't have to set up and bleed. As easy as plug and play.Good brakes add such a nice feel on the trail, inspires confidence and speed when you can trust your braking and modulate your braking according to the trail. This was a great solution for me. I was riding my old 2013/2014 giant talon with tektro novela mechanical brakes and they were very unrelieable - felt like they were either half engaged then locked up when wanting to ride fast. Brought new life to my otherwise old reliable hard tail.Just do your homework first to know if the mounts/cable length is correct for your bike and rotor sizes.There are obviously better brakes out there but this was a great, easy to slap on, upgrade for mechanical disc brakes IMO!

Pros
  • Affordable upgrade
Cons
  • May not provide enough heat dissipation for longer rides
