Default Front Master Cylinder
I just installed my new apes I bought from Hill County Custom Cycles, it came complete with chrome controls and front master cylinder. Haven't really taken it out on a ride yet, so I haven't been able to get a feel for the braking response of their master. I'm just wondering who else is using the HCCC chrome controls, and whether or not they like the feel of the front brake when using their master cylinder.
Thanks for any info.

Brad

I have installed 2 sets of them and I have found no noticable difference between them and OEM.

Thanks, so they have pretty much the same stopping power as OEM?
