So I’ve decided (well my leaking maguras decided for me) to buy some new brakes for my bike.
I’ve had guides, hope E4 and Shimano xt and Zee in the past.
And I’ve decided I just prefer Shimano the most, the bike is an pretty old specialized epic but I am quite heavy (fat) and will use it for mostly trail riding rather than big xc rides.
After not using any of the most modern Shimano brakes I’m trying to figure out what ones to buy?
I can stretch if needed to around £200 which on some of the German sites can buy me a set of Zees or the the new fangled 4 pot xts.
I’m Just a bit lost as to whether it’s worth paying the extra for xt or just get some deores? Or whether I go 2 pot or 4 pot? Or the new way way of doing things seems to be one of each?
