Well I likez theez $109 but for some odd reason the rear is on left and front.is on right, I don't think they can be turned over can theyShimano are your friend man. Much less fuss and lower ongoing costs.
You can swap the hoses over, then you'll need to go through the rigmarole of bleeding but you'll most likely need to do that anyway with getting the right hose length for your bike.Well I likez theez $109 but for some odd reason the rear is on left and front.is on right, I don't think they can be turned over can they
Ummmmmm, are you thinking the CALIPER is going on the left? What the ad is actually saying is the rear brake has the LEVER for your hand on the left side.Well I likez theez $109 but for some odd reason the rear is on left and front.is on right, I don't think they can be turned over can they

Not even a bleed if correct process is followed. Not much use if only buying 1 and it’s wrong side.Ummmmmm, are you thinking the CALIPER is going on the left? What the ad is actually saying is the rear brake has the LEVER for your hand on the left side.
As flowrider says the levers can be swapped easily but may need a bleed from process.
Aww don't confuse him as FR says only the hoses that can be swapped not the levers.Ummmmmm, are you thinking the CALIPER is going on the left? What the ad is actually saying is the rear brake has the LEVER for your hand on the left side

Yeah, at the moment my rear is on the left hand side, pain in the arseUmmmmmm, are you thinking the CALIPER is going on the left? What the ad is actually saying is the rear brake has the LEVER for your hand on the left side.

Nar, talking about getting both front and rear. Just most of the bikes I have had have had right rear brake. Makes sense to me.Not even a bleed if correct process is followed. Not much use if only buying 1 and it’s wrong side.
As said, left rear is correct for standard Aussie....but this is @safreek , so all bets are off.
They should come with everything you need to shorten hoses, aside from hose Cutters.Nar, talking about getting both front and rear. Just most of the bikes I have had have had right rear brake. Makes sense to me.
So is a lever swap easy or are tools needed.
Why the hell can't this company design a brake that can be used on both sides, lack of forethought and lack of caring about customers I think
To an extent that's standard practice before the job is done. They'll have to add for some unforeseen things that could happen. Then when job done, job did not need those things so price is dropped.Do mechanics quote you a higher number on the phone, and then drop it when you go to pay so you feel like they've done you a favour and you go back again?
'Cause their forefathers were sensible back in the day. They were not hung up on the "mother country" ass licking like our flag creators.Why doesn't Canada (and some other commonwealth nations) have the union jack on their flag?
God save the Queen you french anarchist prick! I mean I assume they were all "fuck that..." but there must be some sort of adult reason? Unwashed English arse can't taste that good...'Cause their forefathers were sensible back in the day. They were not hung up on the "mother country" ass licking like our flag creators.
Uncharacteristically for SRAM they have a decently solid lever feel, but that's about where the nice things end. No bite, no power, no modulation (mainly because you can't modulate something that isn't there).Are SRAM level brakes any good, just plain.levels any lock up probs or leaky goings on.
Is $100 a fair price for second hand or not really, no rotors
Ah yeah, that makes sense. Price was over the phone before they did work, then it was cheaper when I went to collect.To an extent that's standard practice before the job is done. They'll have to add for some unforeseen things that could happen. Then when job done, job did not need those things so price is dropped.
But do you mean when job is all done and they change price at the till, after giving you a price over the phone?
8mm spanner for the compression nut.Nar, talking about getting both front and rear. Just most of the bikes I have had have had right rear brake. Makes sense to me.
