MORNE Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 you guys seem to be confusing shimano's impressive ABS modulation for spongey feeling levers
Joe Soap Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 Upgraded my Fox 34 to 130mm with a new damper and air shaft. Also ditched the front lockout. Thanks to Jacques at Cogent Industries for getting me the parts E81F1807-D796-4477-BDAD-F4C7DCDBFB39.jpegStill some way off matching the bling on the scoot in the background... thebob 1
Grease_Monkey Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 Ya, but also consider that if it were as common a problem as you are suggesting, they would have become a dead brand long ago, no way people, especially manufacturers keep shoving money into a company that is pissing off the majority of their clients. I find it hard to believe, especially in a day and age where bitching and moaning is made soo simple and soo public that a company shipping products soo fundamentally flawed remains in business. It not like we are not spoilt for choice for these components, there are dozens of brands and as many have said are/can be superior to Shimano, a lot of bikes are also coming with both Shimano and SRAM options, SRAM especially has equally price comparable products, so it would not be hard for manufacturers to just stop putting apparent fault products on as their reputation will take all the knocks along with Shimano. It could genuinely be that the world hates you, like my mother and tech, I often upgrade her phones/tabs/media players with my stuff, and for me it has worked perfectly for months/years and the moment I had it to her somehow it goes to ****, we talking media players, tablets, the last 5 phones across different manufacturers, cell networks the works all manage to share the same problems. The media player that I used for 1.5 years she has now, it did not give me a second of trouble has gone to complete ****, the media player she had that was giving her trouble I took and its working flawlessly, and I did literally nothing to it, plugged it in and perfection, and its like 4 years old already. Maybe you pissed off a ghost or something in your last life who knows. lolI'm not gonna argue this. Just google it, Shimano brakes need bleeding often in comparison to other brakes.
