First set of disc brakes for me! Culdn't believe the braking power when coming down a hill the other day and didn't see the stop sign. I thought the frame was gonna break.

I have used several different brands and models of brakes (hope, shimano, avid) and these have out performed all of them, I used to buy Hope and nothing else but I got a god deal on a set of these. I will never go back. Different people wil prefer different brakes but these suit me perfectly. They feel more solid than Hope's but still offer lots of modulation, They also have a lot less lever play. As with all brakes, try them before you buy to see if they suit your riding style but definately give these a go
After over 20 yeares of biking and having tried everything out there I can say that Formula brakes are the best. these are light, strong, powerfull and reliable.Great brakes that inspire confidence. Price is good as you can use cheaper rotors with them like shimano and they work fine.
