I currently have Hope V2 Moto’s on my DH bike, they work fine but I cannot get them set up the way I like. I have had them from new for about 4 years and have never been what I hoped they would.
I recently got XTs for my trail bike and love the lever feel and everything about them so was thinking of going Shimano on my DH bike too.
Does anyone run XT/SLX on their DH bikes? I am curious as the deals available on them are decent enough to warrant buying them new but how do they cope on DH runs?
I do like the saint brakes but I don’t like the M820 price tag (or the Zee’s price tag either). I was at Antur Stiniog yesterday and noticed a lot of riders using the old M810 Saint set ups. How do these compare to the new M820 in their performance? I have only ever heard good things about them so I would happily go down the 2nd hand route with them.
If anyone has moved from Hope V2s to Shimano’s or vice versa it would be great to hear your opinions
