>>1108514>You're already using disk brakes, unless it's almost through it's lifecycle, I don't think you could improve it.Well, they don't grip as well as I expected moving up from a crappy rim brake Giant bike I rode as a commuter. I notice that the discs flex under load from the caliper, because they are pinched only from one side. The TRP Spyres mechanically squeeze uniformly from both faces, which should make for a much better performance and won't wear the discs. A pair of Spyres is only $85, which is damn tempting.
>Some would say to "slam the stem"If I went any lower, my neck won't take the abuse.
>Also, maybe try clipless pedals?Done. Just ordered a set of Crank Bros clipleess with platform hybdrids, because I like to cycle in regular shoes as well. Pic related.
