In Full Commute Mode



So this is the current state of the 'check, basically just transplanted the commuter friendly bits of kit from the Volpe and voila. The first picture is of the new TRP cantilevers that I decided to roll with. At any rate, its time to put a grip of miles on it!

do you find those TRP arms improve braking over the stock 'oryx' (or whatever)
I added the wider Salsa hanger last week, and really haven't felt much improvement. though I think i have things setup a bit tight right now.

When I picked mine up it had a set of Shimano R-550 cantilevers on it so in comparison the TRP's are lighter and I really like how powerful they are, for the price (about $60 a set retail) they are awesome.

HotWater said...

is that $60 for 4, or 2?

shit, i should just go look.

$55-$60 Each....they come as front or rear, you just switch the pads around.
