Last pair of brakes you'll ever need or want
Rating:
The Good
LOW maintenance, reliable, consistent lever feel, simple adjustments, easy to bleed, easy to install, badass looks, can use a bunch of different pads on them.
The Bad
a little pricey but worth it
Overall Review:

Best brakes I've ever owned hands down! I am far from a Gwin fanboy but I gotta give him credit for helping to develop these brakes, he did a freaking good job. Nice switch to the 2.3mm rotors by the way, I haven't bent one of them yet. 

I love that they use mineral oil so they are non toxic to work on, super easy to bleed (pretty much same as the shimanos), setup is super easy. You don't even need a full bleed kit (which I found out later that I bought without needing to) all you need is the bleed cup and some mineral oil and you can do a gravity bleed. 

They are kinda pricey but you get what you pay for and there are deals to be found online. I want to try all 3 different kinds of pads they have but they aren't always in stock. I have to have these brakes on all my bikes from now on, I can't go back
