Found the R559s ok. Brake feel is definitely decreased. Performance is fine.
I do have the slotted shoes (can’t remember if they’re standard) and have changed the front pads to swisstop blues (I had some spare). I’d recommend Koolstops for a winter/rain bike.
I have used it loaded, but not more than 15kg. Bike+rider weight not more than 95kg I guess.

It´s now waiting for a new custom curved fork.
BTW, those using Tektro R559s how do you feel them? My braking power has dropped about 20-30% since I switched to them. Also they are super flexy, I mean I do feel a bit uncomfy when braking hard...
