Not sure I'd want to use that material for MTB-ing!

tkblazer · 02-01-2007, 09:04 AM

wooooow

What jumps out at me is brake wear! Dude, after throwing down $5K on the set, you're gonna have to replace them at some point due to braking. This is truely for pros only.

does the Hyundai come with it?

SAR_boats · 02-02-2007, 07:53 PM

Um. I'll stick to my Atomlabs hoops on hope hubs, thanks. I get the feeling that if you looked at those things the wrong way the would break

You run brake pads made of cork. The pads wear out quicker, but they are not as abbrasive on the rum surface.
