I just finished building this two weeks ago. Both hydraulic disc bakes and Force 1 were a first for me.
The brakes performed briljantly so far. Way better than the cantilever brakes and mechanical disc brakes I used so far.
Sram Force 1 was not so great unfortunately. On both races on muddy courses I did so far the chain filled up with mud (obviously) which resulted the chain to come off the teeth and drop. I wasn't able to finish either race. Could this be because I am running a KMC X11 EL chain instead of a SRAM chain? Or do I need to get a chain guide?
