I can now do skids  8) and would be able to do endoes too if I wasn't crap

Linear cables will make a big difference...  :daumenhoch:

They are shit brakes though, look nice but slowing down a bit is about as good as it gets...  ;D

it never ceases to amaze me the amount of threads there are about how sh1t brakes were bitd, i never had any problems with them then and i don't now  :)

granted modern brakes are better and easier to set up but my MX1000 on my loopy works fine as does my 901 on my XL and with that i mean they stop and not just slow down gradually, its all down to the pads you use and how they are set up  :daumenhoch:
