Formula have released two new brakes - Mega and The One for DH/Freeride. Based on the ORO but offering more power and solid build to take the knocks. Here's a sneek peek
http://www.bikeradar.com/news/article/new-formula-one-and-mega-brakes--11677?img=6

The article fails to mention the weights -
Mega 200mm disk 494g Front/507g Rear
The One 200mm disk 475g front/488g rear

Compare that with Avid Code's at 597g for 203mm front

ABOOOO, that's some fat ****, I love Formula Brakes!

 

[ÆX]

yeah, i saw that this morning.

i like those a lot.

 

[karpi]

that one brake looks sexy, how are they doing in weight ratio to the oros?

 

[ZHendo]

i loooooove formulas, they're pricy, but i think that they're the brakes to get right now. the new ones make me want a set even more, time to put some money in the piggy bank.

 

[TheMontashu]

thoes look SICK. I'll stick with my puros though they have more than enough power for me

 

[mattmatt86]

love my K24s, I couldnt imagine having a set that is even more powerful.

 

[jvnixon]

I call that effect hayesitis. There's more powerful out there too than k24s, word on the street from one of my buddies is that these new formula's are significantly more powerful.

Sintereted pads on those k24's will make them even stronger

 

[mattmatt86]

what brand pads? Does it matter?

 

[GPERKINS]

There Extreme brake looks crazy

that's logic that the K24's are stronger with a set off sinters instead off the standard pads.Every brake with sinters are stronger then with out the sinters.

Those look awesome. I love my Formulas, a great brake, just a little pricey.

those extreme brakes are the older version brakes, they were good, but nothing like the ones they have today

 

[zero knowledge]

The One w/180mm disc is more powerful AND lighter than Puro w/200mm disc. Amazing brakes, and with a number of different linkages for the lever you can have a on/off brake (for Matti and Cedric), a very progressive one (for Greg and Nico), or something in-between.

Awesome.
