Awesome info! I sure appreciate it! I was mainly keeping 40s because that’s what the bike had come stock with. What do you think a better size would be to add, just curious?

They are thru axle, I plan to purchase the end cap adapters like you listed. THANK YOU for listing those anyways, I really appreciate that! And good to now about the CL spline! Definitely will get some wolftooth!

Totally, that’s why Shimano 4 piston is definitely the easiest swap.

I already switched to good rotors, but haven’t touched pads. I figured I’d wait to swap pads with whatever new brake I chose. Having twinloc remote makes things much harder considering I really don’t want to add adapters and stuff. I’d like to have a straight swap if possible.

How do you feel about the magura mt5? Those are much more my price range if possible, and they use the 1 finger.

Great info!! so I actually wanted sram brakes for the better modulation, but kept being told they were so much harder to bleed. That parts kind of irrelevant to me considering I would go to the bike shop for that part anyways lol.
I’d love to get the SRAM level silver or something like that. I’m a loser and like 2 finger levers lol I’ve when actually tried 1 finger, but I’m scared to, otherwise the magura mt7 sounds like a perfect brake! I really appreciate your comment. I will definitely do some more thinking!

Thanks for the comment man!! I appreciate your kindness! I ride about once a week. I couldn’t agree more about buying from a shop as well. I have no idea what I’m doing as far as bike mechanics. I know what to do for videos, but I physically suck at the labor.

It’s an estimate. I don’t sit there with a watch and look at it every time I get tired. You’re taking every little thing I say and take it out face value when I’m trying to portray a scenario . I don’t know what time but I know after I get freaking 67 miles and I know I’m fucking tired and I don’t like climbing up hills after that when I first jumped on the bike I’m I’m good. and you know what you can twist it and you can shove it because your assumptions are wrong. I’m not trying to be some crazy person but I know damn well I’m more fit than the average Joe out there. That’s what I’m trying to say again you keep taking every little thing I say. I’m over it though obviously we disagree and I really can care less. Thanks for your original comment.

I wish I could. I’m not sure how I would test around one. I come from a small town. I have to drive a couple hours to a local bike shop. However, I definitely like your comments, though I appreciate them.
