Brakes and cables seems to be a very sensible area to invest in for performance and weight savings. I have been told compressionless cables are the way forward., especially for a Brompton?
Also it is me or have anyone brought a new Brompton find their brake pads a little non responsive? I know this is coming from someone who has been fortunate to ride disc brakes but when I am riding the Brompton it feels like I am riding on carbon rims than on aluminium ones as I feel it takes quite some time to switch them on.
