Wouldn't normally ask this here but there doesnt seem to be a lot of info about.

Anybody running the '09 Tech levers? If so, with which calipers and rotors? And how are you finding them?

I have them sitting in the shop read to pick up and will give you my thoughs on them when I get them on my bike and the snow melts (probably be a couple of weeks)

Got them on my 575 but as of yet not had chance to use it , I'll post as soon as I do , running the 4 pots + standard hose + floaters. Previously ran mono m4's so it should be a good comparison

I've been running some with V2's and braided hoses for about 2 months now..... having swapped from Hayes 9's I can honestly say the difference is huge.
The adjustability of the levers is quick and easy with the knobs on the front so getting them set up right is a doddle.
They give great feedback and as my pads are still bedding in they get better and better every time i ride.
Well worth the cash i'd say!

Agree completely, if your not a weight freak the V2's are very good breaks. I have the vented rotors as well, yet to put them to use but the Mega will give them a good thrashing. Saints seem to be the way to go with the cool crowed tho.
