TRP Direct Mount T851 Side Pull Rear Brake review:
Pros:
Easy setup and adjustment, including full range toe-in via concave washers.
Braking force on par with Ultegra Direct mount rear brake.
Adjustable spring rate. If using a solid (aero) chainring may take more time to adjust spring rate.
Provides ample clearance for BB30 cranks and left arm power meters
Pad spacing can be adjusted independent from cable tension.
Allen key set up sizes: 2mm, 4mm & 5mm.
A additional noodle is supplied to suit different cable locations.
Weight: 175 grams.
Equipment used:
2016 Quntana Roo PR6
Reynolds Strike SLG Carbon Wheel with CTg brake pads, Specialized S-Works Turbo 700x24mm Tire.
This brake seems well thought out and constructed. If one of the objectives was to make it compatible with crank based power meters it succeeded.
