im currently on juicy 7s, and want to get better brakes (read stopping power, so my hands dont cramp at whistler and such). I wiegh 180lbs, and its going on a 9 inch downhill bike.
i can trade my dhx air for a pair of codes or k24s? which would be better? would the k24s actually have more stopping power than the codes? are the 08 codes significantly better than the 07s? (50 grams doesnt mean much to me, and is the galvanized finish just for looks?)
any help will be greatly appreciated.
ps, i dont know if it makes a difference, but i plan on putting steel lines on it somewhere down the line (or should i just do that w/ the juicys and get diff pads?)
