First venture out since the shoulder dislocation tomorrow, just going for a nice leisurely stroll around Kielder to easy my way back in to it!

Good first ride earlier on my Colnago, rides beautifully and despite my worries the Campagnolo super record electric shifting worked faultlessly.

Yes a good upgrade as they are 4pot so technically more braking power

What bike do you ride? They're a full on DH/Freeride brake!
Best Shimano out there are XT or SLX judging by the mag reviews.

What just the calipers Nic? I have them on my Nomad with XTR race levers, they feel good but sometimes pump up a bit on long descents. Think its the brake lever not holding enough fluid or maybe some air in the system.

Took the Nomad out tonight for a smash around the Peak District. Tired legs after yesterdays road ride but I am having to step it up as off to Italy later this year.

Went for a spin tonight, was meant to be a couple of laps of Whinlatter but ended up going off into bikepark lakes. Rannerdale loop or summat next to Crummock water...
Pics as it's all the rage now 
Arty shot for Kudos..

trek remedy in the pics above. Do a lot of mountain and rocky descents in bike park lakes so may be useful to upgrade to slightly better ones.
