Hi all
Looking for recommendations for some brakes... Using tiagra brakes from about 5 years ago but they dont seem that good! Have tried various brake pads and still not much improvement? Any recommendations for new calipers?

    Just bought some Miche Performance deep drop brakes for my new winter bike and was stunned by their quality and performance for £30 – Fit some Swiss Stop Green pads and you can't go wrong.

    New cables make a world of difference, but if it's new calipers that you want, then my new 105 5700 set impressed me today. On a par with my SRAM Rival from 2008. They are responsive, bite well, and so on. A set of 105 for under 50 sovs is possible.
