  • Thanks both - I definitely noticed when I went from 23mm > 25mm but was just curious.

    To explain, it might be the difference between regular drop calipers and long drop, so I'm wondering if it's worth the sacrifice in caliper choice.

    Only TPR and VO seem to do decent long drop calipers and both seem kinda heavy in comparison to huge range of choice available with regular drop.

  • The difference is that you can run lower pressure and not kill the wheel in the first pothole. But not everyone likes to run lower pressures on road, I see a lot of people riding 30c and pumping to max PSI.

    You mean TRP? Same company as Tektro, you're sure they won't offer anything as good with a little less flash?

  • The VO ones are very nice though. I've got them on my winter trainer.
