Review: Formula Cura 4 Brakes
And $A129 PER LEVER extra - if they were actually available - to adjust modulation but not pad distance. What a joke

Review: Formula Cura 4 Brakes
In over 30 years of riding mtb back to shitty cantilevers Cura 4 are the worst brakes I’ve had.
They have no adjustment of pad distance. What a joke I have to buy other levers and it sounds like those adjust the feel but not distance but who knows as their info is vague AF.
Of the tens of brakes I’ve run none have lacked this feature. They dragged out the box.
So I bled them. Yes with mineral. Followed Formula’s own vid and instructions to a tee. Syringes didn’t want to do their thing. Took it to the lbs - the first time I’ve needed to do this in as long as I can remember - to get them to bleed them.
Still f&$king drag.
PoShite.
And their feel is rubbish. No modulation. Do very little then they bite hard. Crashed with them thanks to this.
If I hadn’t spent so much on them I’d bin them.

Group Test: 14 of the Latest & Greatest Flat Pedals Reviewed
Can anyone recommend a narrow width flat pedal?
Not all flat pedal riders are on smooth bike park trails and with low BBs these days pedal strike on embedded rocks, roots and deep ruts is an issue I regularly encounter and want to avoid

Jan 30, 2017YT TUES PRO 2.0 LARGE
$2999 CADYT Tues Pro DH Bike - Large.
Bought Nov 2014 - it was their top model and most expensive DH bike in 2014.
One owner (who’s old and lame in DH terms - it has had an easy life).
Had almost no use - less than 10 ride days - the original tyres, grips, levers, seat etc etc in the pics show this.
Love this bike just not using it.
A few small / usual cosmetic marks from 2 shuttle days - never crashed.
I applied InvisiFrame when new - the minor blemishes/bubbles are mainly in this film which could be removed to reveal original paint.
DIRT magazine awarded it “Downhill Bike of the Year” several times over.
Red Bull Rampage 2014 Andreu Lacondeguy was victorious on a TUES.
