Haha, okay maybe more like:
Well worth the money * if you are in the market for premium cable-actuated disc brakes.With hydros there is so much choice but with mechanical disk brakes I feel like there is a real lack of a decent middle field in terms of cost and quality. There are the BBs and Spyres, then some hybrids then a big gap and then we have Growtacs and Paul Klampers.
You can definitely get cheaper hydros that will perform better. But I wanted the simplicity of mechanical brakes on a bike that is mainly used for travelling and needs easy disassembly to fit in a tiny bag. Also looks. Hydro levers are bulky and their cables are always in the way of handlebar bags and rolls.
Also for a disclaimer I am currently based in Austria and (used) Klampers coming up for sale here is like spotting a Unicorn.

Am I looking in the wrong place? Everywhere I looked that setup seems to cost
more than a whole 105 hydraulic Groupset?
