MTB: Which brakes do you ride?

[cdevil]

Hi Hubbers! I'm curious to know the stats on which brakes are most popular in SA. Please vote and discuss in the thread

You need to alter the second section of the poll to allow multiple selections...

 

and if you care about mtb or road brakes...

Done

Hope M4 on my AM and Shimano Saint on my DH. 200mm Shimano rotors on both.

 

Both offer great feel and ridiculous stopping power.

Hope X2's on both bikes. 

 

Awesome, hassle free and every part is replaceable.

Maybe add a section, what will be your next brakes?

 

Mine might be Sram Guide or Level next.

I don't ride my brakes. It tends to wear out the pads and smells funny.

[HOEKVLAG]

Very fortunate to be running SRAM Guides on my VIPA!

[Surprize]

Shimano XT on 2 of my bikes, and Shimano SLX on the other 1. 160mm rotors on all of them. The stopping power feels great.

Shimano, quite a broad section, I'm running ice-tech rotors and XT levers & pulleys.

 

Edit: 180mm front and 160mm rear

Yeah you should add which model of Shimano and or SRAM etc. Otherwise ppl will be all like "Shimano sucks balls as there's no modulation" ... Unless you'r riding the Zee or Saint

Great idea, I'll start adding options so long!

Agreed, I'll start adding models

[cdevil]

As there are too many different brands/models for the forum poll I'll rather create a google survey and share the link here. It'll be comprehensive and include rotor brand/sizes as well. This might take a while so check back regularly

Formula 1 came standard on my bike .

I am very happy with them .

Good stopping power and pads last a long time .
