its seems from some reading that i cant reuse the calipers
SRAM road calipers have 18mm pistons, the MTB ones vary but Level (no suffix) seems to have the smallest at 20mm. If you used Level levers with road calipers, your pad pressure would be 81% of what it's designed to be. I'm pretty sure you could easily ride around that.

need to convert my gravel bike to a flat bar dad bike...
its equipped with sram Rival 1x groupest..
the s700 gear shiftier seems to be the thing to buy for the gear shifting duties, but not clear on brakes, its seems from some reading that i cant reuse the calipers so need to go for a fresh system, is there recommendation for a cheap but good hydro setup thats managable for the home mechanic to install?
