I was a bit worried too, but I've had the kit for a year now on different frames. I gave it all a beating on my DHR without any problems. It all still feels just like new, even after bending the shifters on a big stack and hammering the crap out of it in general....I hope all your XTR kit holds up would be a horrible shame to see it broken...
I really recommend the XTR brakes for DH and FR, they are unstoppable....um, I mean stoppable I guess.... Really I have nothing but praise for these brakes, just so damn good, all the time!Very nice bike, May i ask what the XTR brakes are like, Are they a little underwhelming for FR?
