Formula Cura 4 Brake Review: They're Light, But Not the Most Powerful
I have the 2-pod now for 5 years on my bike and I‘m still happy. No martter if on a evening lap or on a alpine trip. Last time i did a bleed, i saw that the O-rings are becomming brittle, so I stopped bleeding them 2 years ago. The brakes still work normal (and I have still not ordered some new O-rings).

Poll: Who Will Win the 2025 Women's Red Bull Rampage?
@lewiscraik: Yes, I just saw in one of the videos, that the ladies will have female judges (all or just some?). So there is a silver lining for the battleship.
I'm curious if the judgment for the girls will be less controversial than the one for the boys.
