Hey Sundog3478,

Best wishes for this New Year.

I've got a question:
Been looking for the Mares 105 Disc @ my local Dealer. He couldn't view any stocklist yet and has got to wait until next Wednesday.
But he did told me this.

He hasn't got any experience with the setup of the TRP HY/RD brakes.
But he testdrove a bike with those brakes on it and he admitted that their modulation is a lot better to control than mechanical brakes.
The point that the brakes "bite" comes with a better feeling.
He does warn me about the lever movement. He had to pull the levers very far before there was any braking response. And he doesn't know why it was like that.
Only tells me that barrel adjusters are a no-no for these brakes and advised me mechanical brakes like the TRP Spires over the HY/RD's or a decent set like SRAM or SHIMANO.
Or I must find someone who can fine tune the HY/RD brakes perfect. Because, if setup perfectly, they would outrun any mechanical discbrake by far.

Could you get some info about this @ your CX friends riding a Mares disc?

Many thanks.
