I'd advise against getting anything not made by one of the well known brake manufacturers (avid, shimano, hayes, magura, hope). You won't be able to get replacement parts easily, and most off-brand brakes perform really poorly.spencerbmx10 wrote: the clark skeletal are only 100 so i might get those ones
