IS the setup really that much better then say going out and getting bigger rotors\calipers, and just upgrading the whole system with like Baer Brakes or something??

what about price\availability?

 

Well, installing the the 1LE setup means going out and getting bigger rotors and calipers already. Some of the Baer setups use the same 2 piston PBR calipers with similar or slightly larger rotors, so I imagine performance would be comparable at least.

If you modify your own spindles, the 1LE setup is considerably less expensive than an aftermarket kit. All of the parts are readily available except for one of the caliper carrier brackets which will soon be available from Steve Spohn.

 

Apeiron is exactly right. Not to mention the fact that it is a whole lot cheaper.

y isn't the 1LE tech article working?????

 

... I believe that the 'anchor' brackets are dryin up now, too. Couldn't find a left side anywhere.

 

I think you're talking about the same part we are.

 

I've noticed that 1LE replacement pads are like triple the price of standard pads why is that. I know they are bigger but come on, triple the price? I've seen the standards for around 40 bucks compared to the 1LE that run up to 160 bucks

 

WHEN????

 

Sometime in May 2002!!!!!!!

 

Why do pads for 1LE brakes cost so much more over standard pads

 

I don't know, my 1LE pads were less than $10 more than the regular pads.

 

from what i have heard and seen, its the calipers that will set u back the most.
