Get the Avids!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Jan 30, 2002 4:18 AM | | I just wanted to point out that being able to endo while sitting down isn't really a good gauge as to the power of the brakes. I can do that with my V-brakes no problems.
That said, I would also reccomend the avids over the deore. I haven't ridden them but I've been researching brakes recently and the best I've found are the Avids and Hayes.
See ya

Jan 31, 2002 8:31 AM | | The Avids are more expensive no big deal. Apparently when they get wet they squeel. Is that because of the rookies setting them up or do they squeel a lot. That was my main concern. I have also heard it is easier to bend the rotor back when needed with the shimano mech's. Why are Avids better and I was thinking of putting them on the rear first. My front has ample power with V. |
