Excellent stopping power

These brakes are amazing. I've used them with Kool stop pads and a teflon coated cable because Easy to adjust, light weight, effortless, smooth pull, I personally like them.

Pros
  • Very fast delivery
Cons
  • Big and bulky

Lack of concern for the customer/product.

The packaging/product looks like a display set. These brakes were due for anodizing this week but now I have to clean and polish the scuffs from packaging damage inside and out and don't have time to return them and find another pair. I give this seller 1 star.

Pros
  • Featured
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

solid levers, flake pad nut

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Not the best

Need quality control before shipping!

Brakes faded. Rough texture and discolored. I had to hand polish them several times to get them looking like new again. The brake pads were so tarnished that they looked disgustingly ugly.

These brakes came in a brand new build that I put together with a brand new frame and ALL new parts. I didn't want to put tarnished parts on it, let alone pads that…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Expensive
