I've always used Shimano Dual Pivot brakes and only ever found them too powerful if anything.
Sadly my new frame means I've switched to direct mount and they only feel half as sharp (maybe less)
Is this an expected drawback of direct mount brakes or a sign of a problem with them or my setup?Specifically im using Bontrager Speed Stop Elites with Sram red Etap levers.
My wheels are Aluminium rims
I have tried changing the pads & loosening the power screw to max.
Increasing the reach of my levers.
I also run a spacer on the pads.
All have resulted in marginal gains but no significant differenceDoes anyone know the order I should setup the cable tension, power screw, and centring screw for maximum braking power?

As Dura-ace Hubs don't seem to come in 24h any more can anyone recommend a different Cup 'n' Cone hub for a road bike? (rim brake)

Looking high and low for one of these.

Rat-race have serviced the hub to get it working again but it needs replacing.
Anyone know why Shimano stopped making the FH9000 in a 24h and any idea where I might find one?

Its an Enve rim brake - so yes of all the above.

The Rim and spokes are good quality, but IDK if it would be a false economy to reuse them rather than buying a whole new wheel.
Given-up just weren't safe to use, switching back to Ultegra
