https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RG4H1Ajcqao I tried every method I found and this worked best so far. The bite point still moves a bit for the first two lever pulls after the bike sits for a longer period of time. But it stays consistent while riding. I obviously used the correct fluid and only replicated the process.

if @TheSuspensionLabNZ is Dougal, I'm going to eat my helmet. There is no way the same thoughtful, approachable, nice, knowledgable person that posts here is the same knowledgable troll that posts elsewhere.

Being I'm sick (and bored) I wanted to add a few more thoughts. 1) Anyone looking for raw data, its already been done and the link is posted here. Zee Germans live up to the stereotype and absolutely crushed it if you care about being completely quantitative with respect to a brake test. 2) The real reason I read reviews on Vital is because guys like Jason are legitimately fast, ask a lot out of their equipment and frankly have great taste. Its like reading a review of a restaurant from a food critic you jive with. While adding some...

It’s essentially a method to overfill the master cyclinder slightly to create a shorter lever throw. Turning towards the “IN” arrow expands the volume of the master cylinder slightly. When the bleed procedure is complete, turning the pad contact back the opposite direction sort of pressurizes the line and advances the pistons sooner than if the system was bled at its lowest volume. I’ve done this with Codes for years and have found it to be beneficial on Mavens as well.

For me personally, Ive been on sram brakes for most of my life and they are the most familiar. Also, because of the pad contact adjustment I feel like I can get the lever to stop exactly where I want it to. Certainly a preference thing for anyone, but for me they are exactly what I like brakes to feel like when setup properly.

No this test was supported by Feedback Sports and Ride Wrap. BrakeAce also generously loaned us two sets of sensors. Each brand did provide brakes FOC. They were given the same testing parameters and product asks. No brakes were bled by the brand. They arrived in a box the same as any rider recieves them. No one got a special treatment. Our goals/angles we focused on for this test: testing brakes in Whistler because the trails are proper and relatable/familiar to many riders. 2.) Test an entry-level brake against premium options. 3.) Compare/test staple brakes like XTR and Code. 4.)...

Look who's talking about dampening now!

Perrier has been criminally unvalued since the La Croix fad of 2018. Primed for a big rebound.

That makes no sense at all. That said, I suspect that Fazua will have the updated 480 batteries available and who knows, maybe some motor updates, that will drop in to an already perfectly dialed chassis.
