I'm also trying to get my head around Shimano road hydro brakes for a mechanical groupset. Again it's a 2015 CDF so doesn't take flat mount
so there is the new ST-RS505 shifters and BR-RS785 brakes.
And ST-RS685 + BR-RS785
So are these both non-flat mount brakes? Is there any performance difference to warrant the price difference? Obviously the ST-RS505 are ugly AF
ST-RS505 look and feel cheap, shifting is sloppy.
Do not buy
