Price Paid:  $0.00 at Jamis

Bike Setup:
Jamis Ventura, stock out of the box with full Tiagra (nice bike, just didn't fit me well)

Summary:
I only used them for three months before I sold the Jamis. They worked great! I can't vouch for longevity, but I was very impressed with their power, the ease of modulation, and ther nice looks.

Strengths:
Strong, modulate well, required relatively light squeeze on the levers, look good...

Weaknesses:
Weight, maybe (not significantly heavy). I'd probably replace the pads with Kool Stop salmons eventually...

Similar Products Used:
Cervelo house brand crap (very disappointing brakes!)

Price Paid:  $0.00

Favorite Ride:
Yarra trail

Bike Setup:
Stock 56cm 2002 Trek 1400, Shimano 105 groupset save for the Tiagra calipers (this is how the bike s

Summary:
WIthout comparing them to anything else much except a clunky old set of centrepulls on my old hybrid, they're good. I'm rating them a 4 simply because they work, don't squeal, and I've got nothing to compare them to yet, and I'm heavy, so they get a lot of work.

Strengths:
they seem to stop the bike ok, I'm 104kg (~220lb) and my daily ride has a lot of hills, so far they've worked well, wet and dry. Plenty of clearance for my 25mm tyres.

Weaknesses:
Nothing really to compare them to, is it worth goign up to 105's?
