Subbed curious to see what others have used

I run a hydraulic MTB disc brake HB w\out a FB.
I just bought a 50 with the Reeg Disc Brake Kit. The hayes mechanical caliper was busted; so I upgraded to a Hayes Stroker Ace MTB Hydraulic caliper... HB only. No FB as of yet, but I plan on rigging up a rear master and FB pedal asap.

www.50stunt.com why rig up janky sloppy homemade setups when you can buy a billet one that actually WORKS.

i know its only like 35 bucks shipped and the only time i have to fck with it is when i change a tire or tube. plus it supports stunt business's cause if they aren't around then i'll have to make some "janky sloppy homemade setup".

If I were to run a drum brake set up... I'd prefer the RSC For the HB and front brake with 50Stunt brake arms and sintered pads.
BTW, My disc brake set up is not a "sloppy home made janky set up" if you were referring to my comment. It has all the components of any other disc brake set up; the fact that I have adapters to fit the stock hub is an addition to it that keeps me from having to drop money on rotor style hubs. I have a rear master adapting mount and foot brake on its way from T-Bolt. A Hayes Stroker Ace caliper, Hayes standard 6" rotor, Hayes disc brake kit, Storm disc Brake kit (Hydraulic brakes on BBR SP5's ) Formula FB Master from a KTM which only takes an 8mm banjo and fits MTB brakes nicely. I'm upgrading my bike with some nice parts bud.

i was on only referencing those who are still rocking drum brakes like myself, disc brakes would be bad ass though and i get why people make their own shit for that and a lot of times it seems after some trial an error people get some nice setups not knocking DIY guys, but i have no want or desire to do that to my 50 brake pads for 50's are cheap and easy to find.

Speaking from experience as I have been fucking around with disc hand/footbrake setups for my bike, it sucks and has not been an easy process. I tried to go with the old school gp tech fitting and the shitty chinese master cylinder can't handle the pressure. I plan on going dual caliper and just being done with it.
