I'm OCD, so here's why:
What I didn't like about my Hydro's:
-There was always a little different travel in each lever in the Juicy 5's. I thought that it would be cured with the Codes due to the pad contact adj. When i got the Codes (all noise aside), the pad contact adjustment was worthless. I had to have them adjusted all the way in and there was still too much "free play". I could possibly have squeezed the lever with no rotor and made up some distance
Same reason I got rid of the HFX-9s. I hated those. Stroker Trails, on the other hand, have been awesome.
Geez, I'm starting to sound like Dminor
