Mongoose!

I got Shimano Sora callipers which are specifically designed to be used with STI levers. must say very impressed with braking power and excellent value for money.
Yusran Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Where did you get those Sora calipers? I may consider switching from my BB7 Road_S brakes over to Sora, brake pads for the Avids are almost 4 times the cost of the Shimano pads per set (front or rear - R275.00 vs R75.00)
rock Posted May 31, 2016 Posted May 31, 2016 Wrong! I put these 30mm cyclocross tyres onto my road bikehttp://www.chainreactioncycles.com/za/en/schwalbe-cx-comp-cyclocross-bike-tyre/rp-prod24615They fill comfortably, use them on my commute through the green belt. pics or it didn't happen
