Ok then, i need some new brakes for downhill and freerde. BUT i go to whistler about once a year(family relations, YES!!! :lol:) and usually end up in france a trillion times a year because of, you gessed it, Famly relations :D. so i need a new brake set up that will cope with alphine slopes (and stop me).

i was told a six pot brake was needed, but, then i was told a 4 pot was enough :?
so i have turned to you lot again to help me out. Price isn't an issue nor is weight. :D

Thanks, Jamie

    Hope Moto Vented brakes are described in the test as "Powerful and utterly Alp-proof" So they might be the brakes for you.
