Oros are still good brakes- ancient design but they got it very right. As long as they’re working, the only reason to change them is if they’re doing something you don’t like- ie feel or wear, but not performance. I just retired my last set to the commuter bike but they were in a downhill bike and an xc bike before that and good for all of it (flappy levers aside! and pad clearance was relatively tight so made them a little noisy in winter, but nothing that really mattered) Upgraded to The Ones which are better, but then they’re also better than everything else I’ve ever used 😉
Modern SLX do feel pretty different to the Oros… Depending on whether you like it or not, you might call it more powerful feeling or you might call it lacking in modulation compared to the Oros. They have the same useable power really as do all decent brakes but it comes in much stronger and with less lever travel. I dislike that myself, I like the gradual feeling of Formula and some Hopes etc, where the big power needs a bit more lever movement, to me it’s much better for fine control and traction. Was the same on my notorbike. But it’s entirely personal taste.
