I bought a set of used m4's and put them on my rig last night. The rear one was a pain to mount but i found out it was because my wheel was sitting to far forward in the horizontal drop out. No biggie. I gave it a little test run around outside and can already tell the modulation is 127865876435 times better than the hayes i was running. Now we'll see how they do on the race saturday. So far i likes em!

I'm rollin hope hubs on my rig too. Hope bulb in the front and a sport in the rear. I love em but my friends hate the rear hub since the freewheel part is super loud. I actually like the clicking.

Maybe I needed to use more smilies, I just wanted to get Brian and VV the resident Hope Nazis riled up. They both got it. ;) For the record I have no opinion on magura brakes other than some bonehead singlespeed offroadie in a shop tried to convince me to buy a custom single speed with maguras for about 10 times my budget when I was really looking for a BMX. He said the new ones with 6 pots are uber progressive, whatever that means? Some sales people just don't know when to stop pushing for a commission and make a sale.
