WRONG!



The reason they are so superior:

4-Piston Design: Two pairs of different diameter pistons provide a stabalizing effect that improves control and stopping power.

XT stuff is cheap and nasty. Hope discs are hand made. And you can get four pot calipers. I prefer the DH disc as above; I've been using them for four years and the stopping power is awesome. If you've seen one in real life they're twice the size of XT. Most DHers have been using Hope stuff for years and for a good reason - indestructibility, reliability, quality. Nuff said

Hummm..!! well i dont know what else to say.
Do you ride Mountain bikes...? if yes.. where?
What kind of bike you have?
Myself..I got a Giant XTC NRS.
Really cool, and i know how to ride it of course.

I only have one bike with an Aheadset...and it's a top quality one...but insists on working loose.....my 'real' bikes have Stronglight needle roller headsets...the 'normal' type....and have given me 20 years of hassle-free service....

Aheadset is the only kind of headset i can put on the giant since it has a "integrated" type headset. It hes no cups, the races roll right on the frame.

OK Fuzzy I guess that's your deal..

But for the record the Giant Rainier is a mountain Bike.

Not sure what Jafo has.

Mine's a case of a crappy fork that is in a good frame...so putting the Zokes in with a standard headset will just improve it doubly....
