@jono84
Is there a nice quality flat mount flat bar caliper/lever combo with a hinged lever available? Needs to work with a 160mm rotor. So far found the very cheap Altus kit or the more expensive Sram S300 option but both require the removal of the grip. Not a deal breaker but keen to know if there's other options out there.
Very little experience so would prefer a fully bled lever hose and caliper rather than trying to cobble something together. Alternatively i guess i could go with a Deore brake with a post mount caliper.
