I had a mixed brake lever and caliper combo. I use shimano deore levers attached to meroca m4 calipers. At first I didnt understand how it behaves because my other 4piston brake bites all the way when squeezed. The shimano levers gives me very good modulation on braking. I think in my opinion, braking like an ABS gives you better control than braking hard. It prevents your tires to swerve and crash. Overall, the 1finger deore levers works very well with the meroca m4.

Thanks for the input man and answering the question. This sounds very interesting tonis now.

Thanks for the RT review. I can see where these brakes make sense as a possible upgrade option for a person who is a beginner to MTB riding and upgrading a entry level bike. I certainly agree that they are an definite improvement over what most entry level bikes come with! After watching this review and the other brake videos you've done. I am still skeptical of them howver, due to the lack of a real customer support by the manufacturer and retailer(Amazon/Ebay have some very shady sellers) Personally, I went with the Magura MT Thirty brakes for my budget build. Sadly, like everything else they've increased in price from $89 (Aug 2021)to $107 currently. The biggest "bonus" to the whole Magura line up of hydraulic disc brakes(and rim brakes as well) is that the brakes can be used on either side by simply flipping the lever over.

Bought a set of these for my Salsa Beargrease X5. Looking forward to seeing what they can do.?

You can mix and match Shimano to some degree. My bike came with Shimano MT501 brakes and the rear/RH lever developed a leak and I was able to just swap out the lever to a Shimano Deore (much better). I am actually looking at just swapping out the front caliper to a 4 piston for additional power whenever I need to replace it.

Stay away from m6100, the reach adjustment effects the power, close rto the var it is, less you can press the piston in the master cylinder, absurd. This is due to servoeave, and not having an adjustment to counteract this, like XT has. I had m615, then m6000, same issue on those. Yongey proper power you have to have the lever all the way out. So unless you have long fingers, you are screwed. So no go for kids, and ppl with short fingers. Stock position is safe, but underpowered. Adjusted for a small child, is a death trap can't stop. I wish there was a law that specified this issue so it was illegal to sell it.

2:11 you should not have the skewer quick release lever at this position, this position makes it very hard to undo it. Always put it facing rearwards. This way you have better leverage and can place your hand behind the lever to open it. Unless you have a DT Swiss skewer, those you can lift and plate at any angle.

Keep in mind they do alot of product review so it's not always about the color of an item as much as it is how said item works. Just thought don't pretend to know what is in the mind of a Wolfman or a tick!

Seems like you need to bleed the brakes properly before testing.

That would defeat the purpose. We are reviewing budget bikes and parts for the average rider. Most of our viewers do not expect to have to work on new out of the box products. We might bleed them in the future and or try other brake pads. Thanks for watching👍

@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I get that, but even Shimano or SRAM brakes will feel like that if they have air in the system. That doesn't mean that the brakes are bad or of lesser quality. Now if you bleed them and they still feel that way...then I would agree that you have a problem with those brakes.

@Only One Cannoli So the problem with that theory is we have three sets of MT200 and some MT420 plus several other brands like Tektro ect...and we have rarely or never had a problem with fade regardless of maintenance. Our MT420's have hundreds of miles on them and have been through a couple of summers and winters and still work great with zero fade. We also tested some other Zoom brakes in the past with the same problem even after bleeding them. The main reason we didn't cut these brakes before we ran them is so they can be in the best case factory fresh condition before testing. I understand you want them to perform perfectly, but it just is not the case this time atleast. We want all "budget" bike parts to perform perfectly, but we owe it to the #wolfticknation as well as ourselves to be impartial and fair but most importantly as honest as possible. Hopefully the next set of Zoom brakes will fair better. We do still plan on messing with these in the future.

I never had a 1 finger... it's always been a 2 or 3 finger...
