Well done Luc,
Hopes are overrated
Hopes are overrated
Luc, are you going through an identity crisis?
They are going on my Turner 5-spot. Got them with 160mm rotos for now, which should be plenty strong since it's for trail riding. Might try a 185 on the front later just to see if there is any difference in modulation when using a bigger rotor.snowskilz said:
Been wanting to try those out since their introduction...Anyway, my 6 year old Hope C2s were due for a change!
Josh: Are those going on your Moment? And yes...plenty of great brake options out there...Although I don't think I could give up my Hopes for DH!
OH YEAH? Well I just SOLD my hopes to buy Juicy 5's.
No they are going on an Imperial SL I picked up from someone - I sold my HT awhile go to a friend who needed a bike so I've been trying to get another HT together. I would like to change the brakes on my Moment though - they are weak (hopes).Acadian said:
Sweet!! What Color is the new Imperial?syadasti said:
those brakes rock! I've had a set for a few months now. My only beef is those red star adjuster knobs, I've already broken 2 of em and a 2 pack at retail is like 25 bucks.
I'm gonna slap some Juicy 5's in trade for my hayes on my trail bike in the next week or so! Actually the more vulnerable 7's might end up on the trail bike, and 5's on the big bike.
Not sure if this has already been discussed or not but, is there a difference besides the lack of one adjustment between the 7's and 5's?

oh I missed that part (about being an SL edition) - I really like that bike. The one they as hanging at their trailer at Sea Otter was killer!!!syadasti said:
give us pics once it's all built up
With thos red knobs...can you set them to where you want them and then just pop them off?
i hear marguras are money, at least thats what the nsmb.com boys said
Ya Magura came a long way since the days where you almost had to bleed them before every runSir Happypants said:
Those where also on my list of brakes I wanted to try...but I got a good deal on the Juicy's - so I decided to get them.
Blah blah blah blah, Luc you'll sell those babys within a year.
The juicys are good brakes, I use one for the back. I did once get a mysterious air leak which i couldnt figure out for the life of me, but avid sorted that out really quickly.
Ill probally replace my XT with a 5 in the front, seems like it would be great.
Oh, and btw- I use the 6 inch rotor on the back of my v10, im 200lbs, ive never had any problems with power..

who the hell would sell an imperial SL? aren't there like 10 in the world?
Luc just wants to be like me. I bet real soon he will have a pike on his 5-spot too......Brian HCM#1 said:
