I'm talking about the dual diameter pistons and some other things like the Type 2 rear deraileurs... Just Shimano introduced those stuff first on the market and someone is catching up by copying directly the ideas with some small differences, just not to be fully the same...
The propper installation is one thing. I am talking about a solid increase in performance here by servicing them on the trails. Avid is and always will be much harder to service than Shimano and the fact that there are so many leaking brakes from the factory is not in favour of Avid. Just for me Shimano is better and also invented first the technology - hate copying...
I don't know how many of you above are working in a bike shop and have the propper knowlegde, but the facts are the following: I managed pretty easily to bleed three Shimano Saint M810 brakes on the field with nothing more than a bottle of mineral oil and a screwer on a multitool... The results - the two bikers gave pretty good times on the race after that.
Is there a person that have done this with an Avid brake without a special bleed kit?
The second time I see SRAM copying from Shimano and I think it sux! I am still gonna use Shimano brakes just because they work and they are so easy to be serviced... That's something SRAM can't copy, despite trying so hard...
