same here....that being said I have a set of hope's on route to me. I am just going to say it....the whole avid range was a cluster f**k...they gave endless problems(first hand experience), hard to bleed properly and then you have to frequently nurse them to ensure performance. Shimano's simplicity was its beauty...but the on-off feel they give isn't for everyone Apparently the guides were designed and built from the ground up...good move by sram imo and they are being specced on top end enduro bikes so that in itself says something. There is a video on pinkbike somewhere going into depth from R&D point of view of the guides. They are getting great real world reviews so hopefully sram has turned their braking woes around.
