any other mini v recommendations
TRP are fine but needlessly expensive next to the Shimano ones. Tektro 926 is functional but a substantial drop in quality of design and execution.
German shops are usually a good bet for Shimano non-series and touring parts, Bike24 have black 353s in stock https://www.bike24.com/p2168610.html
It's worth getting the XT shoes https://www.bike24.com/p223508.html while you're at it as the moulded-t0-the-bolt pads are the main thing which makes the Sora worse than the Tiagra/105 level brakes.
Cool, TRP are half the price so that's my prejudice. Do you have any other mini v recommendations as the Shimano ones seem hard to find these days?
