• Want to run a frame that takes flat mount brakes with a flat handel bars and have hydraulic brakes. It's mostly for commuting and possibly some light touring so not in need of anything special but a bike shop has quoted 200 squids which seems a little steep (does include labour mind). So could I do it cheeper? Most flat bar sets of course being post mount and the converting mounts aren't cheap.

    The official line is Shimano BL-RS600 levers with BR-RS405 calipers. If you shop around hard and DIY you might get levers, calipers and hoses for £100. £200 fitted at a shop seems OK for those components, but not for something worse.
