Hey Agleck7. There's definitely more initial bite with the SLX and I feel like that makes it _seem_ like there is more power. On trails that DH brakes have left me a little underwhelmed, these provided less in all-out power, but the fact they _always_ felt the same granted loads of confidence to let her rip and yank harder when needed_._ If brakes remain consistent I find there's less worry about power, because you don't get in the same shitty situations as a result.
That said, Zee's will offer more power but with, as you say, the on/off feel. They're usually more expensive too but can be found for a similar price to these at the moment.
