Got new brakes, again. I did upgrade to hydraulic brakes with brake-sensor a while ago. To Magura MT5e. But those sons of bitches are terrible to get to work properly. Bleed is a nightmare. So I searched the web and found these wonderful Tektro Dorado 4P brakes! They are, at least as of now, really great!

had to firmware update both and had to make a sram account to get to the settings part as np way to do it with no account.

How long is the warranty? Can you get a full refund if you break it within the next few days? Try it while listening to music on a blue tooth headset, see if it changes gears to the beat. Does it detach and combine with nearby robotic shifters to make a big killer robot?

it is 2 year warranty but might change the jockey wheels for metal ones.

Kerching! Might that be a consumable that Sram get you buying preriodically and often? And a way to make it obsolete?

change the jockey wheels for metal ones.

Let's hope it's not some weird size..
