Been running these for just over 2 weeks now and I am really pleased, good power and modulation, lever feel is great, lots of adjustment, standard pads were either crap or I ruined them, the uberbike sintered are great completely changed this brake, not slipped once. Main issue with my saints was pad rock, it was bad and annoying, these brakes have no pad rock at all. Overall I'm impressed, nothing like old avids imo.
