Highlights
Quality
They work excellent and are easy to install, even with internal cable routing.
Very easy to install and a great improvement over the old cable-disc setup.
Bought these out them on, they squeak so badly you don’t even want to ride.
There wasn’t ever a time these brakes didn’t make a abknocious straight squeeling sounds!
Price
You wouldn't think these would be that great, especially for the price.
If you are ok with that, these brakes will perform for you and not cost you an arm and a leg.
Shipping
I was erroneously sent a right side rear and right side front.
After messaging the seller, they quickly sent me the left side front i was expecting.
Packaging/appearance
They came out of the box with fluid and pre blead.
Competitiveness
The brake feel is so much better than the cable brakes and they don't squeak.
These brakes are as good as other brands my friends have that were more expensive.
These are based on shimano brakes and they use the same pads.
