For downhill I would go for the new Hope Tech V2 Brake with 220/203mm Vented Rotors. One of "thee" most powerful brakes currently on the market.

that's what they say, but my experience on them was disappointing, my elixers out performed them on the longer, faster garbanzo runs in whistler. yet the craftsmanship of the hope's was very, very impressive.
