Can you explain the upgrade you did in the first video, I don't quite understand what the benefit was. I do a lot on mtn biking as well and might want to give this a try?

thanks

At 8 seconds you can see the pads retaining pin used in this brakes. The calliper comes with M5x0,8 thread. So I modified one bolt to be like the XTR system.





Please. Do not forget the retaining pin



Now I need time to do this stem
