Ideas ?
turn on your phone screen and use a white background to see how it look, it should have an even gap between each pads.
if the rear felt sticky (too much friction), take off cable, and fit campagnolo one in.
A lots of bicycles I've build come with Spyre and Shimano newer shifters, the combination work very well, even the one that have a normal cable housing, so it's entirely possible to make your brakes feel great.
Lastly, if you're on standard pads, ditch em for Shimano.

I'm at a loss with mechanical disc brakes (and internal cabling) - TRP Spyres on a Giant TCX to the extent that I'm thinking of selling the bike. At their best I didn't really think they where that much better than rim brakes, and I'm finding they need much more maintenance to keep in good working condition
Rear brake in particular is giving me problems. I'm guessing some containment got in there - the brake only marginally scrubs off speed. Changed pads and scrubbed the rotor with disc brake cleaner to within an inch of it's life. To not much effect.
Ideas ? Not ruling out being cack handed with it as it's my first disc brake bike
