its gonna be better than my genesis with tektro long drops regardless.
Wouldn't be so sure of that. I run TRP Spyres with 6700 internally routed on my Bowman. It's got compressionless housing etc etc and been looked at by many separate mechanics, has swisstop sintered pads, Icetech rotors etc but it doesn't stop anywhere near as well as my 5700 rim braked planet x. Spend some money, go hydro, do it properly unlike me.

Cable discs stopped me fine at Bike Park Wales when I weighed 115kg.
Either my fingers are made of steel, or people on this forum have been pushing too many pencils....
