Yeah that's fit

Worryingly that's the second carbon bike I find awesome (the other one was @HoKe 's Look) in a short period of time... There's something wrong with me.

How are the Klampers? I just ordered a set :-)

You need a tidy room :o)

How are the Klampers?

@amey rates them.

Yeah, it's a proper mess in here. Will start tidying when I find the time.

They're good, but Avid BB7s are much better.

but Avid BB7s are much better.

this is excellent £35

Klamper is essentially just a shiny made in USA bb7 though?

I read that Spyre’s were better when researching... hopefully I rack up 20+ likes on IG and it’ll all be worth it.

These are the ones you want

What's the advantage of cable-operated hydro calipers? Auto pad depth adjustment? Mechanical advantage? Both?

It's all about the feel, man

with cable discs you don't just need to pull the lever further but also harder to engage the pads more, whereas with hyrdaulics the resistance is the same for the whole length of the lever pull meaning you can brake harder for less effort. Also hydraualic ones auto adjust for pad wear.

Are those cheapo Zoom hydro cable callipers even worth considering? They're alluringly dirt cheap...

Do they come in flat mount or is the F1 the same? + work for ‘Campag pull’?

Yes they come in flat mount, 2 or 4 pot , and work well with campag levers.
