This is going to be the best thread! (outside of OOS)
I definitely see the pros and cons of both brakes.... personally I have Guides on my Hightower and XT on my Talon.
Only thing is.... its an adjustment going from one to the other. I have been exclusively riding the Guides and recently rode my Talon with the XT and I was goofing up pretty badly by locking up. After about an hr or so, I was able to adjust and got used to them and things were fine for the rest of the ride. Now if I go back to the Guides, I am likely to not brake enuff and crash into a tree or go off trail.
So... I am thinking of either going all Shimano or all SRAM and I am leaning towards the Shimano because of cost.
Your thoughts on which way to go?
