This is pretty pointless since I have already installed the larger rotors with BB7s. I just wanted other's opinions because my experience seems to be different than most people on the bike forums.
I went from the stock Tektro 160mm f/r to BB7 203f (solid) and 185r (clean sweep). Also went to the speed dial levers but only after I had some time on the new brakes with stock levers for comparison purposes.
Besides the obvious benefits of larger brakes, I now have much better modulation than stock. I was told I would have poor modulation with big brakes but as I thought this turned out to be false. With the addition of the speed dials, modulation is even better.
Anyone else who has gone with larger rotors experienced better modulation? Or would you blame the better calipers?
