Ok... so I've seen plenty of reviews on the Avid mechanical disk brakes, but as a long-time hydraulic brake user, I still find it hard to believe that they are as good as they claim to be.
I've had two sets of Hayes hydros (one w/6" rotors f&r, one w/8" rotors f&r) and one set of Grimecca hydros. I have really loved all of them. The Grimecca's lack a bit of power compared to the Hayes, but they modulate better. It's a give and take.
I really don't know many people using the Avids, but I have seen plenty of people raving about them. The mags pretty much love them next to the Hayes hydros.
What gives? I want to hear REAL riders experiences with Avids vs. Hayes or other hydros.
