My bike is a CAADX frame and fork with SRAM RED mechanical shifters/front & rear derailleur. The brakeset is Shimano cx. Long story, but essentially I wanted clearance for wider tyres. Moving on.
I tried road calipers recently (Shimano 105s) and was impressed. I don't ride wide tyres (I ride 25mm which some would say is wide of course) any more and was thinking of swapping to calipers. Do I need to stick to the SRAM groupset and specifically to the Red? Will Rival work happily with the red levers or are the pull ratios different? How do I find out for myself?
