Yo, welcome to the forum :) a great first post.
I didn’t know much about ee brakes until I just googled there. Ooft, six hundred bangers for the real McCoy. Wild.
So basically they are roughly half the weight of DA but with slightly sub DA performance?
Fuck paying that for the real deal but I can now see the appeal of these alix ones.
Out of curiosity, what bike do you have them on? Is it proper weight weenie?
Have you weighed them?!
Have you noted any potential problems with them damaging the down tube as mentioned in the road.cc review?
I think someone here said they have real ones and ordered these alix numbers.
Be great to hear some real life comparisons.
