...shimano, in using a new 4 pot system have moved into the league usually dominated by Hope. the 4 pot system gives greater power than two pot systems and doesnt overheat easily. the shimano is better than the hopes because it uses two cylinders to drive the pads rather than the one cylinder that the hope uses to drive all 4 pads. the shimanos are also a lot cheaper than other systems with comparible performance, although they need expensive hubs, making them more expensive than the hope open 2s. the braided hoses are bombproof but need to be precut and the levers give superb modulation and good feel....

Advantages: Excellent lever feel, stopping power, durability Disadvantages: when they squeel, they REALLY squeel
...I've been mountain biking for many years now and over time I've tried a wide array of brakingsystems on my various bikes.

On the contrary, not only do Shimano mange to offer value and excellent shifting but they’ve also managed to design the unit so that it looks sleek and stylish on the bike.
Overall, highly recommended on both performance and value for money…...
