magnesium = or full resin with an option on the resin body to have an
aluminum = lever. Check out the their website, or come on in and look through our = detailed catalogue with the service manager

Well the full resins will be the cheapest and I believe the Mag bodys with alum. levers are the most spendy. I would go with all alum. if I were you.

If I were me I would go with Avid mech discs and Avid SD7 levers.
The avids are cheaper, more powerful(unless you are getting 8" hayes) and feel better at the lever.

Just my $.02.
