Looking to replace the HyRds on my partners bike with Spyres. Had quite a few problems with the HyRds and also want something that is easier to fix on the road. I can collect in London or postage please. I'm based east.

Let me know what you have. Thanks

Can’t help I’m afraid but mind me asking what problems you’ve had with the hy/rds? I’ve been thinking of going in the other direction and swapping spyres for hy/rds

Think early hy/rds were recalled; i had a set replaced under warranty when stopping power dropped off a cliff without warning. Replacements worked well for short period I used them before I sold the bike so can't really comment

Quite possibly my mechanic skills but they have always felt under powered. Sticky pistons, I re-bled the front, cleaned and oiled the pistons and they are still not great.

I had spyres for a short while and they are fine, but the main thing is simplicity of repairing on the road vs inconsistent oil based system.

Thanks for this. Yeah I hear you about the simplicity of Spyres. Even if I do give hy/rds a try I'll keep the spyres for longer trips etc for exactly that reason. Good luck with the search!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
