According to the product specialist
Pros
| These brakes have a low total weight. |
| These brakes have stable braking power in all conditions, even in heavy rain and mud! |
| The grip of these brakes is hard and absolute. |
| You can colour match the brake with your bike. |
| The XTR M9100 brakes are designed to withstand even the most extreme situations. They offer consistent braking power even in wet or muddy conditions. |
| These mtb brakes are highly modulable, meaning you can precisely dose the braking force. This is essential for controlling your mountain bike in technical situations. |
| This brake set is very lightweight, making it ideal for long, mountainous rides. |
| You can adjust the distance between brake lever and handlebar without tools. |
| They have an advanced cooling system that helps keep the brakes cool, even during prolonged use. |
| These brakes are perfect for performance-oriented cross-country mountain bikers! |
| These brakes are lightweight. |
| Braking power and modulation are excellent for Dutch MTB routes and medium technical trails in other countries. |
| The brake lever is fully adjustable. |
| The Magura Storm HC brake discs provide excellent braking power in all conditions. |
| The stopping power of the Hope Tech 4 has been increased by about 30% compared to its predecessor, the Hope Tech 3 MTB brakes. |
| Suitable for cross country use. Depending on rider weight + bike, see last product image. |
| Made with single pistons, the X2 variant is built to be as light and compact as possible while maintaining great stopping power for flat to hilly courses. |
| The position of the brake levers is manually adjustable according to personal preference, with a maximum range of 30°. |
| The shape of the brake lever has been further improved to maximize comfort and control. |
Cons
| These brakes have less modulation than brakes from other brands. |
| The modulation is not as good as with SRAM or Magura brakes. |
| These brakes' bite is not as sharp as that of Shimano brakes. |
| In terms of modulation, SRAM brakes perform better. |
| The X2 mtb brakes have too little braking power for enduro use. The Hope Tech 4 E4 MTB brakes are better suited for trail and enduro. |
