Can't wait to get these bad boys on my ride! Big thanks to Al from Helderberg Cycles, Bibi, Trail-er-park and Michael at Gravity Imports for all the help. You guys rock! If all goes well I'll be testing my upgrades out this weekend. Can't wait!

Parts have been installed and she is looking real purdy!

New SLX brakeset from CRCpost-54517-0-59493300-1429691061_thumb.jpg I was a bit surprised at the packaging, everything loosely packed in plastic bags inside a bubble pack envelope. I thought these came in boxes.post-54517-0-73318100-1429691228_thumb.jpg The rotors were rubbing against each other, slight paint damage.post-54517-0-14782200-1429691313_thumb.jpgpost-54517-0-52740300-1429691334_thumb.jpgThe levers also have slight scuff marks. Is this normal for CRC?

I've never experienced that from them. Probably OEM parts as mentioned.

 

Mention it to CRC and see what they say. They're usually good with after sales stuff - In my experience.

CRC repacks a lot of stuff. Probably to save on storage space and reduce shipping costs.

It could also be Customs - opening to look and not wrapping properly afterwards - not cool
