What callipers atm?

Mechanic friend of mine bought Ø203 2.3mm Galfer discs for their UA cargo for the same reason.

Why do you have 2 bells?

Stock brakes on Benno boost are good, but if you have some decent hills on your route, try changing the stock shimano resin pads to either EBC red (semi) or full sintered (shimano or EBC, just not those cheap £5 jobs you see online) and stock rotors.
The levers I think are still the older style (work best), the new type with the clamp in the wrong place really don't work with this bike, frustrating Shimano only has legacy support for 'normal' clamp location levers with non servo wave variety.
If you want more after that either go 4 pot + above pads, or go the full 203mm F+RStock resin pads seem to come on all cargo's now, all brands seem to favour them (I guess price and good initial bite?), but as soon as you need to drag brakes with a load on for more than a few hundred meters they start going over.

Been cruising around the back lanes, hilly but nothing mental and the brakes are just getting so hot! Time for a 203mm rotor with slightly better heat dissipation and then I’ll move onto some finned pads if not some hope brakes I reckon
