Ladd Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Rite just wondering what would be your choice for a front disc cable or hydro ? Thanks Mike x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan. Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 i would say in my opinion get a maggie louise, i've tried the new hope and old ones alike and they all felt really spongy when the lever pulled in...as to bb7's i did like them but there isn't much modulation in them.....maggie louise just feels mint and i bet loads of people on here would agree.

Phil H Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 Personally I'm running a Magura Marta hydro disc, getting on well with it.Hope mono's are very nice if set up well and the avid bb7 (cable) is popular choice.Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NileBrown™ Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 i think you should go for a hydro break cabels are rubishErm, how can you say that, ive had both hydraulic and cable and im sticking with the cable as Im my opinion is much better than my old hope so they're certainly not rubbish!

Dave Anscombe Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 some cable disc brakes are insanely powerfull.....most of the riders today use a bb7 witch is cable..so how can you say they are rubbish?how ever i do prefer the feel of a hydro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Trials 31 Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 its a 07 typhoon 20". pulo forks, viz logic stem, try-all rage bar.Lucky, I'd buy it from you though, if you ever sell it. Anyway, my top choice is a Hope, second would be Louise for the price, then the BB7. Basically, if you can't afford a Hope, get a Louise.
