thanks,

I have a set and they were fantastic. I ran an oversized rotor with them up front and rode just about everything out there in the front range in CO. They are actually very capable brakes with great modulation. The thing I liked the most about them is that they were dead easy to bleed and set up. Set, forget, ride. Simple....

I know a guy who runs a pair on an '04 V10 the braking power is fornominal in comparison to the combined weight of bike and rider (HELL OF A LOT THIS KID KNOWS HOW TO EAT)
