I was seeking the same but then just bought the whole groupset yet to be made its way onto a bike. Shimano made a point about lever throw and hood shape so I assume its better not that I have had any issues with R785s.
@Dick has the R9170 levers but with old calipers so his experience doesent really count. Plus he has never had R785's
I want someone who has ridden R785 and the old flat mount calipers, SRAM hydro (etap HRD) and new Shimano
obv the new stuff BUT there are R785's going cheap on here ..
