Yebo...would love a saint crank and brakes for reviving my EMD...

My DHR has saint cranks. They are a stiff as a brit's upper lip. Absolutey love them. In fact. the ONLY thing left on my dh bike that's SRAM is a shifter. and that will change to a saint shifter in a short while.

Was looking at the Zee cranks and brakes as well, but eish Saint is too much of pretty.....so will hold out until I can afford them.

True that.

 

I just love Hopes. I love the look and the feel of them. I love that they are machined out of one piece of Billet. I love the fact that they are made in Britain (shame we have to help out the little bankrupt rock don't we?) I loooove the 4 pot calipers.

 

Having said all that I really really approve of the new stuff from Shimano. Especially the Saint stuff. Yum!

 

I really like the hope calipers... the levers, not so much.

I think a Hope / Shimano Hybrid would be really cool - Hope Calipers, and a mix of hope shimano lever / MC, and convert it to mineral oil :thumbup:

oh yeah... when it comes to cranks, shimano has it right!

 

Running an almost full Saint groupset on my little bike. M810 genereation Saint cranks, shifter, RD... but Hope brakes :thumbup:

The trouble with Hope brakes is that you can't leave your bike anywhere, because when you get back, it has drool all over it! Yuk!

Just remember, no one can make you feel inferior without your consent.

 

Yes, and much consent is being dished out here on a daily basis, also trolls like yourself, never willing to contribute but always willing to act all pompous .

I am a serious individual, not a bag jumping poser.

My love letter to the can and can not's will be here later today.

You do realize this is all in jest don't you? No one ACTUALLY cares about this stuff. It's all lighthearted entertainment.

He went full retard.

 

A retard os someone who buys kit to match his wheels ,then sits in anonymity on a forum giving the impression that he can outperform Greg Minnaar.

That is the actual deinition of a retard.
