Sorry for the hate speech but I feel like the Brembos will be a huge flop. They've hyped themselves up for way over a year which has lead to the results you mentioned. Omakacycle has a set of GR-PRO's and the quality seems to be on par with Hayes (AKA disgusting), especially taking the price into account (paint runs, sloppy bar clamps and poor overall finish). Considering how many can't setup Mavens properly, I think there will be a similar problem with the GR-PRO's, especially when you need to buy the bleed kit separately and I'm 101 % sure there...

Not much to be said, had my dream bike stolen a week ago, the police is useless and the thief sold it fast (most likely for some drugs). If it somehow pops next to you and you see it, please give me a DM. They might be dumb enough to move it without spreading it into small parts. Thanks! Part...

The new vented rotors look sick. I wonder if they work with the Tech4 V4, (I know they mentioned it was developed specifically for the v6ti), but the tech 4 v4 was the last brake to support the 3.3mm vented rotor spec. Seems the newer GR4 and TR4s dropped that.

Before I bought my intend trinity set, I had the formula cura 4. Changed the stock pads to galfer green, installed 220mm 2.3mm thick formula monolithic rotors (front and back) and replaced the levers with the rgtec offering in normal length. I didn't get the chance to run them down the mountain and properly test them, but honestly, they have...
Damn I just love this set of trinity brakes, such a joy to look at and use. Want to get some sinter green pads soon to test if the resonance disappears (and if it gives them even more bite). For anyone wondering if you can use a 220 rotor on the back of a propain tyee 6 AL in L...

Yea, the way your hand contacts the bars when the lever is out that far is very different. I did some testing on it and found the closer they are, the more comfortable and balanced the contact of my hand is against the bars. Your hand pressure tends to rotate more inward the further the lever is away from the bar. I have problems with arms/hands though so it's more of an issue for me. The Tech 4 V4 is kindof between the two. The Intends have a more traditional (Dominion, Shimano, etc) lever feel in the sense that you...

That lever is indeed fantastic, I never had such control and modulation before. Never had a brake where I could access so many parts of the breaking curve, especially the first part of gentle braking. I do live in EU so I can source all this stuff easier, but thta far out lever on the maxima...meh I'm thinking of replacing...
Guess I'll pass on the maximas then, I really do not like running the levers far out; it is one of the best things about the intends, feels like my fingers can rest instead of staying stretched all the time. I had a set of new hope tech 4v4 that I sold to get the intends, but I do regret...
How does the maxima feel compared to the trinity for you? Do you notice the difference in stopping power? I really like my intends, but I'd like to try the maxima in the future as well; one big thing keeping me back is everyone is saying you need to run the lever farther out, which I dislike
Good grief the new brembo brakes have to be the ugliest things I've ever seen, it makes the mavens look like a piece of art. After looking at my intends, the brembos make my eyes recoil and blast backwards in the brain. There are so many people that work on the development of a brake, can't imagine there wasn't at...
Well if it is for modulation, considering you also live in the UK with Hope right next to you, I'd go for the Hopes. You also have the new Hope Evos to choose from I have a set of new, unused Hope tech 4v4 in my room that I would be using right now if it wasn't for the luck...
Was finally able to hit the trails with my new set of trinity brakes Using formula monolithic 220mm 2.3mm thickness rotors, front back, I also get the same high pitch squeal on light lever feathering and the loud howling upon harder breaking, especially on the front. This time I think I was about 96-100kg total kitted. That sticky piston issue...
