Again perhaps I just don't go fast enough to need all that masive stop on a ladybug braking power.
Yeah, I know. No one died. And it’s not really about having to stop quickly from a high rate of speed.
I expected top end brakes to have a certain feel, and they never did until I got dual pivots, compressionless housing and Swiss Stop pads.
