Easy tiger! Hates a strong word, a mild dislike is probably more accurate.
Sarcasm aside, I honestly don't think they're that much better than well set up calipers with good cables and pads. I had Spyres ages ago, on a couple of frames, and I realise tech has moved on, but they weren't that impressive. But most importantly, they look shit, especially on a frame with external cable routing. Oh, I'm also a bit of a luddite/retrogrouch.
