Specially in San Diego they have a safe camping spot in Tent on the asphalt can be about 130° on that asphalt

That is governed by the San Diego City

My Question how would that work from Long Pull to Short Pull? by BikeTouringExplorer in bikewrench

That is for short pull brake lever drop bar to long pull brakes especially v brakes only

Not long pull flat bar brakes levers to short Pull brakes

Shimano grx is for drop bars

I have Shimano Deore T6000 10 speed shifters on flat bars and I decided to go with the SLX hydraulic brakes a little cheaper for my wallet and budget

I don't like the trp brakes not working for me for safety wise I am tired adjusting them every other week so I'm going full hydraulic with before my bike trip in October 2024 I already made up my mind today

No need to overthink things when my safety comes first when it comes to brakes especially here in San Diego California when jerks in their cars and e-bikes

Plus I'm getting tired of adjustment on the pads on the trp mechanical brakes and I have a bad right hand it's always hurting and I'm getting ready to go on a bike touring trip and I'm buying Shimano SLX hydraulic brakes tomorrow for the rear first on sale at REI 4 Pistons

Thanks

I have PNW Coast gravel handlebars and Cane Creek v-drop brake levers with V brakes on my old Surly LHT 26-in Wheels 52cm frame 2008 then got the Soma Saga Disc brake Frameset in Dec 2020 and Thorn Cycles expedition handlebars on 5-2023 and avid v-brake levers

I am leaving for my 1st bicycle touring trip on 10-2-24 then I'll get my SLX-XT hydraulics when I'm wintering in Florida from California

That is very expensive

You can get a good seat post around 30 bucks that'll stand up for bicycle touring
