good call on not doing coloured cables... it usually looks pretty darn bad... well hoses in this case, but I digress...

Not. Sure theres always a lemon in every batch lol.

The hopes sound good! Also magura makes some good stuff why are you stuck on the lower end luise, the martas are great, a bit... lot more expensive but it's worth it! Also the new magura mt8 looks good, but it's more for AM!

Elixir CR.
Honestly have fun courcing paying for bleeds and even pads for the hopes and maguras.
Most shops I know only carry formula avid and Shimano bleed kits.
It would be a huge bitch.
