i have a 2017 yeti sb5.5 with shimano xt brakes 180mm rotors front and rear, it is fine for trails but ones i get to the gravity parks im finding myself progressively getting more and more under gunnned. as i get faster my brakes are fading and just not cutting it. i want to upgrade to saints or hope v4s, leaning towards saints. will there be any sacrifices with either brakes while riding normal trails? this is my do it all bike and it needs to do everything, 6mr, allaire, creek, killington etc. would either be better suited for double duty compared to the other? ive heard the saints are grabby but is this something that has a learning curve, or will it make non gravity trails miserable?
