Re: $60 Brembos or should i say frembo's (china knock off)
Its funny to read threads like this one... Especially on this forum.
If there is one good idea out there, there will be a line of people to make it either better or worse. Just because Brembo was the originator and well known brake manufacturer doesnt mean that there isnt someone else out there making a reasonably acceptable substitute for it. Its a well known fact that products made in china are cheaper. I bet 90% of people on this forum ride bikes made in CHINA. :D. So why not buy a handbrake made in china, thailand, or anywhere else.
They could call it something else and not rip the brembo logo /etc. But for the sake of making money on ebay, more power to em. I would try it before dumping $200+ into an authentic brake. Any radial is better off than stock brake levers.
As for the rest of the **** in this thread, i could care less about who got shoes and whatnot. If the guy did buy 10 of these brakes and sell them for more than he paid and someone he knew could be spared the inconvenience of ordering **** from china then its all worth it. Its business.

lol, i would gladly pay $50 for a knockoff brembo.
This thread is about BREMBO REPLICA HANDBRAKES.... thus, i dont care about shoes and whatnot.

about 8-10 days depending on what day you order.... i usually get em faster if i ask for overnight shipping but i didnt ask him to do it for free... believe me rather you get it from him or me you will get your monies worth...and i sent you a fresh pair of shoes in the mail... please let me know when you get em.... these will last you quite a bit longer bro... and stop dragging the bottoms so long....lol take care and we will square up later....
