in Road buying advice
Hello all, Im fed up with the poor braking power of my Sram Red brakes so looking for alternatives (I’d swap to Dura Ace if the pull ratio wasn’t an issue). Ive read some magazine reviews around the FSA K Force WA groupset where the reviewer has said that the braking is really good so wondering if anyone has experience of the K Force light brakes and if you can tell me if the pull ratio is similar to Sram Red

Cheers

    I have SRAM Red Etap on one bike and Rival on the other, on the Etap bike I have Force brakes and Rival on the other.
    TBH I have found Apex, Rival or Force brakes to be more than enough and really never noticed a difference between them so sticking with SRAM could be another option for you.

    sram red brakes are hardly 'poor', if the braking is really that bad you need to look at set up, housing, pads etc.

    bit old now, but not much has changed...
