when set up right they are not bad.rob39 wrote:Tektro IO mech :oops:
are the gear shifters seperate? if yes the no issue there.
yes your rotors will work but maybe have a think about fitting a bigger rotor and adaptor to the front and reset the calipers (if the pads are shot change them as well).
For most bikes and most brakes i would go 180(5) front and 160(5) rear every day."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

never had any issues with the IO brakes, they have lasted me well, normally ride Kirroughtree so they work hard, just thought an upgrade was needed? The shifters are seperate.
So what your saying but a new rotor for the front 180?? and stick with the IO if they work ok, and put some fresh cables through them???0
