I had one for a short while.

There is no cable guide/connecter included in the box, there werent any in mine at least, so the shop had to give me a seperate one which didnt really work that well...

The brake works "OK" but not amasingly. I would strongly recommend a Suelo brake instead.

My friend used to run his like that and it worked fine, he ended up getting odyssey brakes for free and moved his demolition to the rear
