    Brakes are the one thing you don't realize are so important until you need them so worth the extra cost in my opinion. Probably cheap Shimano hydraulics and bigger rotors/better pads the best option. Great video!

      I think your absolutely right. It never hurts to spend alittle extra on something you rely on to keep you safe. Thanks for watching

      larger rotors are not the answer. more pistons or bigger pistons are. larger rotors and small brakes will overheat almost instantly

    Which dropper post is that? It looks less complicated to install than the one with the internal routing cable

      It was: Tranz-X Jump Seat Cable-Less Dropper: amzn.to/3rgL5W2
      Literally the easiest dropper i have ever installed!
