I have guide rsc on my bike, with bleeding edge, the 2017 model that should not have problems with the piston. However, yesterday, in a hot day, 35 celsius, and riding for much time in direct sunlight, the pads suddenly rubbed the brake disc a lot (i almost couldn't ride uphill), and the lever...

Which one of these versions is wider? I have 21mm internal width rims. the 2.5 maxterra is nowhere to find. have you spotted it anywhere? the 2.5 supertacky, will be fine for tubeless installation in UST rims? (the tyre is not TR) the 2.3, if it's as wide as the aggressor 2.3 and the dhrii...

anyone tried iw 21mm rims with dhrii 2.4 tyre? One told me that they work brilliantly, even better than wider rims, cause the narrow rim gives them a rounder profile (we all know that minion tyres have more of a square profile).

I want to buy a set of new brakes for dh use. Zee's seem to be amazing from a lot of reviews i read. I found, for just 90$ more, a pair of the new 2017 guide rsc with the S4 caliper. What would you buy? I am really tempted for the guides, but i am a bit concerned of the issues that read...
