New XO Brakes

I have a new set of brakes to replace those lousy Elixir CR brakes that gave me nothing but grief. I'd finally had enough and contacted the shop about getting SRAM to man up and replace those worthless things. To SRAM's credit, they came through and sent a new pair of XO stoppers.

They look and feel great, but time will tell how they perform on the trail.

My only real complaint so far are the ridiculously long cables. Seriously! Just look at those things. I don't know why the shop didn't cut them to fit when they were installed. I'll eventually have to get that corrected, but I'm just thrilled to have working brakes for now.
