T-Bob Posted December 5, 2017 Share Stopping things are Formula Cura brakes. Reviews looks good on them but I will test them out in the next few rides and decide if they stay on or get swopped out for my XO trail brakes that's on the Epic. Good build! Stick with the Cura's. They are great brakes and are powerful enough that they are used on the Pro DH circuit. Keep them, get them bedded in and you'll be glad you did.

Pikey Posted December 5, 2017 Share All build up and ready to ride! Damn now I am itching...Craig sent me a pic of your bike when I asked him for white & yellow stickers. Have also asked for white mrp stickers for the fork as well. Hopefully will be delivered before Friday . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep them, get them bedded in and you'll be glad you did.I can second this. Have been using the Curas for a few months and I am very happy with their power and modulation. Nothing else at that price point compares! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotSoBigBen Posted December 7, 2017 Share That's what I ended up doing with it ... Not a gravel grinder but also not a road bike, aptly described by our own Hog from this here WielNaaf as 'robust' which equates to FAT [emoji849] and not PHAT as I had hoped Will fit the FD and do the final adjustments and setup tomorrow ready for some riding on the weekend Sent from my HUAWEI VNS-L31 using Tapatalk Kalahari Vegmot, mon-goose, Fruity and 14 others 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
