xpanco (Aug 12, 2011 at 16:53)

Kona-rob (Aug 12, 2011 at 16:55)

i wanna try it with something like hope v2's, now that would stop you

yeah i would imagine if you need two 8 piston brakes on one end, they're not going to be developing a huge amount of power between them... why put two shite brakes on, when you can use one good brake???

for a laugh is all i can think of

in fact that's 16 pistons, stupid.... i remember seeing it on some german showbike i think?

things loike this tend to crop up every couple of years at interbike/eurobike/gheybike shows. thankfully they never see the light of day.

shimano once did one in 2000 that had 2 rotors on one side, a pad 'sanwiched' between them and only 4 pistons. SOOO much power
