    :lol: they arnt the ones i got! just a random pic... the ones i got are grey with red lock rings...

    and the other dude.. sweet, will check that out. they look like they will be awsome, they have awsome back up, and follow a very similar lever design to the new hope tech's. their litle bro's (s2's)are well reviewed on here too.

    I hope that the lever-reach adjustment is better on those than on the S2's!

    I got some S2's a week ago and the reach adjustment is the worst I've ever known. Even when the levers are adjusted fully inwards, they're still a mile away from the bars. I know I have small hands, but it's ridiculous how poor the adjustment is.

    Shame really because the brakes do feel pretty good...just can't bloody reach them comfortably! :x
