New Mudhugger Front Race Guard.

 

Not too sure about the looks, this is a love it or hate it thing. I haven't had to deal with serious mud so far, let's see.

Only issue I find is that due to the low profile, now and then a leaf or twig will jam in between the tire and the guard, making annoying engine sounds.

I've got one on my mtb 29er and I love mine.

Anyone keen to buy a set of Hope M4's or swap for xt/xtr? No offers is Avid please I'd rather have clap.

 

I think 4 pot brakes are not really optimal for the type of riding I do.

 

Sorry bro, not keen o the brakes, just thought I'd agree on the need for 4 pots.

 

Going to be giving the Magura Trails a try next (4 pot front, 2 pot rear).

I wanted to buy those, but opted for guides at half the price. Maybe somewhere down the line I will change. Have read lots of good stuff about those magura's

Just make sure you can get spare pads and Magura Royal Blood. I picked up a few sets on my last trip so all good for a while. Also they do prefer/recommend that you use the Magura Storm HC rotors as they are slightly thicker than others....I've run stock Shimano's 203's up front and 180 rear but couldn't say no to a free upgrade from the Magura rep in Les Gets during the PDS!!!

 

The MT Trails have no Contact Pad Adjustment but I've found that even on the MT 7, the travel is only about 5% so its not as good as the SRAM equivalents that are really noticeable. But that is a minor compared to the excellent modulation and feel from the brakes.....the power comes on immediately but nice and easy while feathering the lever and goes hard when stomp down on them! And no squealing!!! Even in the wet!

 

CWC are selling the Shimano and SRAM clamp convertors as well so you can hang your deraillers from them as well

 

PS: the 4 Pot set takes 4 x small, separate pads but there is also a single set type ie 2 x pads for the 4 pot

PPS: there are some great extra levers: HC3.... that have lots of adjustments eg leverage rate and reach adjustments
