look at the 3rd 4th and 5th acid products
not out yet….
if u tried to oreder those brakes u'd end up waiting….
i hear by the end of the month hopefully Avid will be shipping these brakes…
i got a full set on order but so far no one has em for sale… in fact no one even has em at the distrubutor level yet…
Wow those sound amzing, cept the levers are sooooo ugly and look fragile IMO
but im sure IFO will keepus up to date with a review .. eh IFO :)
u know it…
the Avid lever is NOt fragile… they ae easily as tuff as any other stock brake out there…
when i had my Avid mechs and Avid SD levers. i didtched my bike tons and never lost a lever… i think i managed to bend one once but it was still totally usable afterwards…
the thing is
the lever just looks so exposed compared to a hope or grimeca
but i think its my mind
I'm seriously thinking of ordering a set of those.
I can sell my Hayes to my bro, and order up those at cost so it'd be damn near free for me to switch.
I wanna see what people say about em first though, but judging by the quality of the mechs I highly doubt we'll be disappointed.
shop smart, shop s-mart, mhm
Not one production set has left the Avid Warehouse without a bunch of paperwork prior to its departure.
Mine will be here once I get an EP price. Who know's, I might have mine before IFO get's his…. The race is on :)
Avid makes some of the best levers on the market. They look a good bit more minimalistic than my HAYES purple levers, but I have no worries about flimsyness. And the Avid system is supposedly just as modular as Hayes is. So you break something, you don't need a whole new lever.
I like my women like I like my Scotch. 15 years old and mixed up with coke.
look quite juicy :cool:

those levers look mighty uncomfortable… like they were designed for a different species. i cant see those levers being ergonimically correct in any way at all.
as for the actual brakes/braking… i have no idea. the description sounds like any hydro set.
