Seems the Hayes brand is frowned upon in my neck of the woods. Nobody wants to service them which was a big surprise to me. They just say they are too complex and laborous to work with and they even went as far as saying i should just replace them with Shimano or Sram or something else at least. But that is not a philosophy i follow...so i will have to do the dirty work myself it seems.

So, what to buy? I`m totally green here so need some pointers. Thanks !
