Sorry guys, but I don't understand why you guys act like this idea is "monster-stupid"???

He wants to swap to monoblocs the cheapest way, 848 forks is it!! Technically this fork is not better than a 999 but therefore it's cheap and on a good day you would almost swap it 1:1!! So doesn't matter if he reworks the 999 or 848 fork!!

The monoblocs you get for ~500,-$ used, get about 200,-$ fort the lates P4 if he sells his...300,- bucks for that trade, you don't get a RCS for that!! And even if: monoblocs are definitely hotter, even stock, with stock pump, pads, etc.


BTW: I don't understand all the "RCS" - hype: what's so special about it, to switch between 18-20 linkage?? Most people use the setup wich fits and won't change that anymore. So why not buy "old style" Brembo pumps with the linkage that fits?? (saves ~100,- at least!!)


My 2 cents!!

Greetz,

Dali!!
