Brake drop length listing question.
Tiagra Brake Caliper is stated to have a Drop: 49 mm. When advertised like this, is it the maximum drop?
I'm wondering what the range would be as I've measured my brake drop at 44-45mm.
Help appreciated, thank you.
OK answered already. Although not sure why they're list as 49 if CRC staff say range is to 47.
"These Tiagra brakes have a regular drop of 39-47mm. If you require long reach brakes, the Tektro R539 (linked below) run a drop of 47-57mm"
