Has anyone fitted the Skinz brake lever replacement that fits Hayes Brake/Master Cylinders? I really miss the brake feeling from my Apex and is hoping that the Skins adjustable brake lever will help somewhat. Interested in your opinions.

I wonder if switching the rotor to a wave type like speedwerx offers would help with brake feel?

Is the LE and RR rotors a wave type or just a round one with holes drilled into it?
Edit, just saw rockerdans video and saw a wave rotor on his so that must be the RR and LE spec rotor.

Best thing you can do for brake feel is chamfer the pads and watch your caliper for the grooves from pad backing plates wearing into the poor design caliper. I saw Rocker Dans is starting already. Get it warrantied.
