I would like to swap out my hydraulic brake set up for one that uses cables and causes much less of a headache.

Suggestions? Offers?

Avid bb7 are the only game town worth buying. I bet you can find some used ones for a reasonable price.

Also, recycled cycles has a pair of the odd 4 bolt rotors for your bikes hubs.

Remind me what magura brakes you have again?

this, none of the other mechanicals are worth even a soiled piece of toilet paper much less an actual shit

and you can get calipers/pads/levers used for around $75
