I'm in the nice position of buying new brakes and I want the new XTR. They will be going on a Stumpjumper FSR EVO, intended use is gravity enduros and Mega style events as well as bigger british rides such as snowdon and the lakes, so bigish icetech rotors. Cool fine pads don't bother me.
Race = slightly less power, need tools for reach adjust, lighter, look cleaner
Trial = more power, less clean looking and a bit heavier.
Does anybody have experience of either? What would you go for & why?
