my friend has them i cant stand the levers becasue they feel very flexy but they are incedobly powerful. But then again i have only ridden them on a skatepark orientated hard tail. For dj and skatepark they seem to be preety solid but for downhill i dont know but you can search the pinkbike archives becasue they did a reveiw on them last month i think. The guy named SKINNA has them so you could pm him if you had any questions on the brake.(hes had them about a month)

hayes forgot some thing avid has held dear. the "safty pop" a little invention that can save you alot of money. if that washer goes your lever will pop in and out on a hayes and if u pop it in wrong your brake needs to be replaced avid elimentaded to washe sor it can not be ripped out on a fall i have learned this from experiance.

I haven't ridden them, but they feel in my hands. It just feels like im having to stretch my whole hand out. 1-2 finger just doesn't feel comfortable

I have demoed them and they felt powerful. The lever is a little long but it's adjustable so you can bring it in closer. The only thing i don't like is that the brake lever has a brake off safety feature where if you crash it brakes off. Saving the other part but then you have to buy a new lever. It is just weaker than a normal lever because it's designed to break off.

i love mine so much the olny problem is that i belive mine have the little problem with them that makes them rebound back out slower but there is a kit for this. but ill live the power is crazy i have a set of mags on my dh bike and the trail kills it. the modulation is so crazy ive tried juicys and shimano and this takes the cake i hope that helped i use mine for street and dj
