What replacement flat mount mechanical calipers would you recommend? I'm researching Paul Klampers and TRP HY/RD but will consider other advanced alternatives.
I went down the same rabbit hole. After fiddling with my TRPs for a year or more, I eventually bit the bullet and got me a pair of st-4725 tiagra hydro brifters and calipers. I'm happy I did. Its just better. I may offset the cost selling the used mechanical parts.
