Hayes HFX-9 xc or avid single digit 7
Im looking to upgrade the brakes on my azonic ds-1. Im building this bike to be mostly urban assault with a little bit of trials thrown in (like the guys in JIB). I have hfx-9s on my stinky and was wondering if these brakes would also be good for this application, or would the SD7s be a better choice.

Go with the hayes my man. Go with the hayes. |
Nice bike...and definately go with the hayes. Love the way the feel when I haven't broken the master cylinder ;)

Another big fan of Hayes.

Ok then i guess im going for hayes for this bike too, but also, should I do 8 inch or 6. Im leaning more towards 6 just because of the trials factor, plus i put my 8inch rotors on and it looks kinda funny
|
6's should be fine. 8's will be heavier and you won't notice the extra power much anyways.
|
I'd go right ahead and say DONT GET HAYES. All they are going to do is give you trouble......get a pair of shimano discs and you'll be set!
Wait....you have hayes on your other bike.....and v brakes on the azonic right now? Splain... |
Hayes HFX-9 DH with 8" rotors..... I can stop anywhere I want, period.
Never a problem. If you know how to set them up, you won't either.... :p |
Well i ordered the hfx-9 with the 6 inch rotor today. I threw my 8 inch rotors from my stinky onto the azonic and it didnt look right, plus i dont want the 8 inches to get in the way when i do trials type stuff

Alright dont listen. If you have problems with your hayes you better not post here crying about them. |
