Strokers are good reliable stoppers. a bit wooden, but my bro has had some on his stinky for 2 years now and he hasn't touched them!

Elixirs or one of the Formula brakes seem to be the best regarded at the moment. Are they just for general XC/trail riding?

Some second hand Hopes.

Lovely modulation and powerful enough without weighing a tonne as long as you get the right ones
