  • i'm thinking about getting the sram red hydro rim brake shfiters/brakes and derailleurs and pairing them with shimano 11 speed crank/cassette/chain.

    i'm a bit unhappy with mechanical rim brakes given my first "road" bike had hydraulic discs.

    any opinions on this combo/idea? it would have been cool if there had been an etap hydro rim brake group...

  • As much as I hate to admit it the anti-disk people are right in that you can get more than enough stopping power with well-adjusted rim brakes (assuming that it's dry and you don't have loads of weight on the bike). What are your brake pads/rims? Koolstop Salmons are incredibly good.
