What happened to your Elixir's?


Sun Disk Jockey hubs/ Sun Equilizer25 rims. Took them out for the first ride yesterday and rode some things that I would use the Enduro for most of the time. Time will tell, but if they hold up anything like my 321D's on my enduro I'll be a happy camper. The Brakes are the old Deore set from B2B. Nothing wrong with the Elixrs I just wanted a set of Hydros for the hardtail. They work fine.......not in the class with the Avids but they'll do fine on that bike. Oh, I also put on a new rear shifter( Sram X4) to replace the one I broke a while back.
I ran the stock stuff on the hardrock for a while to see if it was really as bad as most folks say. I had the wheelset hold up fine for about a year and a half and then I kinda messed up the rear and replaced it with a 223 that I had lying around. The front was fine when I took it off. I'm still running the stock X4 8sp drivetrain. If you keep things clean and lubed it shifts great and has held up well. An added bonus is that 8sp stuff is dirt cheap. And you can find a lot of good stuff on the 'bay. Not a whole lot left on the old monkey bike that it came with at this point.
