And in truth I'd rather go up hills more easily than go down them faster, if a choice must be made.

+1 about thinking twice about using CLB's aluminum cased brake cables.
They are super squishy and easily takes away 1/3 or more of your braking power, compared to if you have regular steel cased brake cables.

Hmmm, thatīs too bad. My old Super Record brakes (drilled! OMAS tuning!) arenīt the strongest anyway...
