Nice build, not sure about the red hubs, (a personal taste thing)
but the codes are a nice touch, they should stop you in a similar fashion to hitting a brick wall, some of the best brakes on the market.
Looks good, should ride well.

Cheers eddy.Those codes are just the best brakes ive ever tried and ive tried a few.Formula's the one look like another beasty set ive yet to see out there. Over kill and a little wieghty with 203 both ends but you never worry about scrubbing off speed.They make my hope m4's feel like the brakes i had on my grifter in 1985. As for the hubs, I just fancied a bit of colour on her.Thanks for looking.

very nice build, like the red hints of colour. Some serious stopping power! You just need to get it dirty now.  ) |

Have you got a pic?
I'm sure it'll all be very simple if there's a problem.

Dont think it would show up on a pic.Its like a hair line, but you can see that its raised and catches the light. Sounds petty but its on my mind. For this sort of money want it right and I would nt want it to fail whilst doing silly speeds.Ouch.

I agree, you want to know its just right. I'm sure the bike shop will confirm or deny your worries.

My ASR has war scratches in the carbon stays and it's been fine for the last year. I have a replacement story....when I was in Spain last year and the guide there had snapped the carbon rear on a 575, he contacted Yeti, with the frame number etc and they send him a new one straight away. So by that I think the Customer Service/replacement is excellent and even more so if you go through the store you got it from. Sure it'll be fine though, but always best to get it looked at by a doctor  |

Well, the frame came back and there was fook all wrong with it. I am a complete mong ( even though a few of my mates thought it was a crack too and the shop keeper was unsure ) It was just a line in the carbon from a layer in the molding process. Sssoooo happy she's back. Quick blast earlier and back in love. I have reduced the rear disc to a 185 though just to be on the safe side. ;D

Better to get it checked out ,than too ride on with the thought in the back of your mind that it could fail at any moment .Happy riding theswede.
