Perfect

"I bought these for an electric bike build I was doing.. they were an upgrade fro. TRPs HYRDs. I hoped I could get away without changing the disks, but it seems Shimano might be a shade larger, and the surfaces does not have as many cut outs.. So bought some icetech RT86s which gave a lot more stopping power.. the pads on these 785s are also wider, giving greater and great stopping power. Ideal for what I wanted. T"

Solid brake callipers for post

"Solid brake callipers for post mount frames of all kinds. Nice considering not everyone wants to bin perfectly good frames just because the bike moguls go flat mount"

— Matthew E. (5/5)
