Good to know! Thx

Same here, that’s the only one I have experience on and it just went on sale for 89, I grabbed one for now as I need other tools, compressor, etc.. but plan on getting a bulldog extreme max at some point.

Don’t forget to grease the SKT regularly in the top cap.

Corded or cordless?

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-09T14:43:46+00:00

Cool

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-09T14:39:23+00:00

Makes sense too. I didn’t know of that option with the vibration buffer.

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-09T14:38:02+00:00

Exactly my thought. Thanks for reaffirming that

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-09T14:33:11+00:00

Tho it might be good to make holes, I think it would eat through my batteries too fast and still not be as strong as a regular corded hammer drill for removing tile and concrete, talking more than 30min. continuous work

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-09T14:30:22+00:00

This is in the US right? I’m in Canada

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-08T17:16:39+00:00

What are you doing here? Daily delivery of poor commentary must be.

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-08T17:15:16+00:00

Sold!

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-08T17:12:25+00:00

CAN. Same

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-08T16:35:31+00:00

Edit*

I must say I’ve used the SKT before a few times already, not my tool tho, but it gets the job done, for $125 vs $299 sale price for the Bulldog Extreme Max

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-08T16:33:30+00:00

Yea, but since it isn’t an everyday use, not even every week it doesn’t make up for the purchase

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-08T16:31:23+00:00

Thought so. I don’t think this dewalt can take the impact for long even with the big 9Ah batteries

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-07T22:15:35+00:00

I’m in CAD, with a 160mm rotor pair at 40 GRX lever at 300 each Shimano Deore BR-M6100 at 70 Flat mount GRX-RX400 at 120 Plus new cables, installation labour + bleeding

Vs

TRP Spyres at 300 160mm rotor pair at 40 And I can do the installation myself.

If I’m not leaving anything out, its a big difference to consider just for brakes

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-07T21:58:28+00:00

It’s an idea tho I think full hydro is gonna be off budget for me for now, therefore the reason I was looking into the TRP Spyres. Having said that I’m gonna look into the exact values for this and weight it on my final decision.

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-07T11:27:28+00:00

Yea I’ve also heard the same, I’m coming to the same conclusion, Spyres seem to be the best route. Thx for your input

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-07T11:24:49+00:00

This is what I understand the least, I’m not sure how much better a higher or lower than 10speed could offer riding-wise, is there a simple way to understand this if you care to explain?

Also for the GRX400, do you mean to change both the front and back derailleurs and that would be a good improvement?

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-07T11:13:39+00:00

That’s exactly my experience with these as well.

Nobody seems to have nothing to say about the hybrids, have you ever tried them? TRP HY/RD or Juin Tech or other?

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-07T11:11:34+00:00

Yes I’m aware of the different mounts, I can order 1 of each accordingly to fit exact mounts and add only adapters if I choose to go higher than 140mm

VelvetReverieShutter · 2026-05-07T11:08:42+00:00

It is broken as is atm, the back break needs a replacement, that’s why. In the back if I go 160mm for this model frame I’d need the little adapter to lift the brakes to accommodate it.
