For brakes now looking to order and looking at TRP Spyre Mechanical Disc Brake Set Front & Rear with 160mm rotor. Is that enough or did you get 180mm?
Would it be possible to get more photos of your setup and the fold?
What are your thoughts on flared gravel bars?
I have been using 160mm and its been ok for my needs.
I doubt there is any wrong with 180mm either.
Remember to get compressionless housing for the brakes if possible. (do remember to get the rear one to be long enough to cater for the folding)
My bike is not always with me as its stored in another place.
But do let me know where specifically you want to have photos of, and I can take some pics when I rotate to the bike.
No idea on flared bars.
My take is that I don't have the skills to be in the drops when on trails so I have no need for them.
