Xtreme's seems to be a lot more durable than HL. Xtreme's rotor is about 1/4" thick versus the little thin one that HL has. Also you find that a lot of people have stated that once the HL's get muddy, you have to pump them due to the cuts that are in the rotor. Xtremes is a solid one piece with no cuts for mud to collect. They also come with new studs and 1/2" spacers. HL you have to beat the studs out and reuse them. Xtreme is about to come out with a rear disc conversion as well.

Well Flip, its like this. I put them on, then broke the pads in per the directions. Next day I went muddn. After I had been thru several gud holes and had mudd caked up on everything (including me since I took all the black off the quad) I went down a hill towards a hole. This hill is a good 65 degree decline (maybe a little steeper) and I used only the front brakes to stop and hold the quad. No problems, no pumping, no slippin. This is one product I HIGHLY recommend if you are in the market for brakes. The way I saw it was I would be better off to put another hundred dollars in and get whole new set of brakes and forget about it versus saving a little money and then have to rebuild the system in few months.

www.yaskyatv.com/prod/sus/xbrk.htmlTry there. This link is directly to the page. They are only listed on the products page for utility quads once for some reason while HL is listed several.

I dont know why Aden did that. It seems to me that eveytime there was a front brake listing he would list all the products he carries for it, but he dont.
