What do you think of those brakes? and if you want to lose weight, and gain style points, go twenty6 pedals.

Love the brakes, they have been great for slalom so far, and even riding the mountain with it. I have a pair of t6 pedals, but they are on my dh rig.

right on, I've been debating between the XX and the new XTR brakes, not sure which route I'll go...

xtr is sweet, but the avid brakes matched the sram build, and the guys at sram have always been great to me.

nice, I've never run anything but sram except for crankset... everything else has always been sram... Our shop is predominantly a group of sram guys... but I just like XTR crankset, nothing else from them tickles my fancy... and the new brakes look intriguing...

how is the fork responding to the hard work? is it able to resist big hits?

So far so good for slalom, and dj use. Quite a few local teams have been running them on their sx's without issues

Thanks man, I really love this thing, i bought it for slalom and jumping, but it can do so much more, its a fun bike no matter where you take it, very flickable.
