I had forgotten how trash they were. I can't feel a solid bite point at all on standstill, just a squish that keeps till it stops. You also require considerably more force to pull the lever on freestroke than my rear saint which has a bit more resistance than my front brake. At the end of the first section of DH his hands were tired from pulling.
Probably the only thing keeping him from putting the XTs is laziness from doing the internal cable routing.
Those things aren't useable at all. No fucking wonder when they switch to the good side they can't handle the power. They hamfist the brakes all the time and get used to it and when they try something that requires almost no force to use they end blocking the wheels followed by "muuh no modulation".
Hilarious
AXS shifting was nice though, slow but nice.
