>>1979124>My single pivot brake has good modulation but that's due to it being stiff as a rock so I just squeeze harder from the dropsi think that is the problem. i switched to ergo trp levers from the non-aero stock ones, and they are a bit harder to manipulate from the hoods for my tiny hands. plus running non aero levers i feel like forces you or makes you more apt to use the drops mainly just due to comfort, so it's not as much of an issue.
i swapped them back but accidentally screwed up the front brake threads, and changing the stud was way more difficult than it should have been. with the grub screw removed and a hex socket on the mounting stud, it stripped due to being insanely tight and just soft, i had to clamp the head in the vise to get it out. on the plus side due to the longer stud i can change and re-mount my rack strut so it's not like 1mm away from the fender.
they really did not want these calipers taken apart i guess
totally made things worse before they got better.
