I have the basalt brake tracks from about 3 years ago. A little sketchy in the wet, tbh. Taken them to the mountains a few times with no issues.
I’ve never understood the strength of argument that they brake poorly. I’m on my 5th set from Farsports and all have braked very well with Aztec carbon pads.
Four sets went under Fiats on holiday?
They're great in the dry (using the lb pads they sent me which have lasted 15,000kms and look like they might do the same again).
The comparison I'm making is to dry/wet braking on Dura Ace C24s if that helps?
