Whatever happened to Hayes? http://www.hayesdiscbrake.com/brakes/stroker/stroker-ace/ These used to be the beasts when it came to fade......

Code work well since the redesign. I havent had any fade issues and they are as quiet as a church mouse unless there super wet....but there never THAT loud. All that and Im rough on my brakes and weigh about 245lbs....ones are cool but I think dual pistons is the only way to go. Maybe running DOT 5.1 would help the fade, that mineral oil is testy....

its "unofficial" no registering....bring as many as you like just keep it semi DL.....I working with the county and landpath's to make a legit one but so far we only do little "unoffical" races to work out the bugs for when we have a legit race. Last time we did it eight of us did a mass start, its a chaotic blast. See you there, Ive got twenty on first place.....

Doing a race on this on the 29th, you should come meet at the gate you ended at a 1:00pm. Betting glory and prizes...
