    i thought hayes 9 were alright but a popular choice on here is the Formula Oro brakes I think? I like the avid codes and the hope V2's personally :)

    and where you from if you ride cwmcarn and aston hill?
  • I've been really impressed with avid juicy 7s they have lots of modulation backed up by some serious power.

    I have also run hope mono M4s (black/Gold) which i was really unipressed with even with goodridge hoses and big floating rotors they are out performed by the avids.
