Easy Adjustment, Good Braking Performance - TRP Spyre-C Disc Brakes Review.

These mechanical disc brakes came once more to my studio and I must tell you - I love them!

Where to buy TRP Spyre brakes:

Just been trying to adjust my new brake install and was struggling - rubbing. Your TRP vid told me everything to do it succesfully. Thankyou very much. clear, simple and straightforward. Brilliant.

I've been riding with these for 3 years now and cannot say I like them that much. They are easy to adjust for sure but you have to really set them up right to get good braking power. I found this video because I cant get rid of the squeal in the front break and am a bit surprised by the positivity for them.

I have these on my gravel bike and I found them insanely easy to adjust just the way I like them. If you set the pads right they won't wear unevenly. Dual pivot is the way to go, especially for touring situations.

Using TRP Spyke on a MTB. Pad adjustments are on both the inside & outside. Dual pad actuation in a mechanical caliper. No rotor bending in order to contact both pads. Good stopping power & simple to maintain. Thanks, Danny

Really looking forward to more of these "Budget" Reviews! Thanks!

Thanks for sharing about the adjustment with the 3 mm on the side, so nice and simple, can't wait to do this on my spyres.

never had disc brakes before, i'm so glad i went with these. they were SUPER-simple to set up. almost as easy as rim calipers, and they work with Campagnolo brake levers as well!!!

I bought a pair of trp spyre brake for my merida speeder, when i upgrade that bike to road bike, with st-6600, because i saw this brake in your videos. I am very satisfied with this brakes. Thank you

I just love mechanical disc brakes, i have it on my fatbike, the BB7's reliable, easy to adjust and work with, i tried hydraulic but wasn't pleased and all the hassle that comes with them, and as for braking power, i hear people say mechanical brakes aren't very strong, well let me tell you i'm at around 102kg when the brake lever is pushed far in it's enough to throw me over the handlebars with easy, use a good brake cable and sleeves and you will get allot from that alone.

There are several adjustment videos for these brakes, but NO ONE mentions that there are 3mm pad adjustment screws on BOTH sides of these calipers. I think that's what causes some of the performance problems with these brakes.

[recyclespinning]

Thank you for review.I'm thinking of buying a used bike that has these brakes on it, and just want to know a little bit more about them.

[benjaminhunt]

Great review. Really looking forward to the new type reviews you are hoping to do. This is an area that really frustrates me actually, because I can only afford the so called budget bikes. It should be remembered, that although they are budget bikes, it's still a lot of money to spend on something, and many people spend a hell of a long time saving up to buy their " budget" bike.
Nice one Danni.

In order to ensure that the pads press flat on the disc this is what I do - 1. leave the caliper mounting bolts a little loose, 2. adjust both pad sides in equally so that they are squeezing the disc. 3. Tighten the caliper mounting bolts, then 4. adjust the pads equally away from the disc.

[Hardi]

It's recomended to use those 3mm screws to adjust brake pads wear. When I adjust from the barrel, I think it changes the leverage of arm.. the arm where the wire is attacked will be on diferent position and.. although it does not look like much difference by eye. I think, it does change how the brakes feel.. I could feel it.

Hi Daniel When are you going to test Box components?

[hamgom]

Great breaks with easy maintenance. Also looking forward to more budget reviews.

[Jorge_Rodriguez]

Hi there Danny! Nice video! I almost bought a Vitus Zenium bike with those brakes but in the end decided to go for traditional calipers because getting replacement braking pads for disc brakes in Cuba is nearly impossible.

[cjones]

I just set these up on my Surly, so easy to get them just right!

[jigglypuff]

Nice video. These brakes are super easy to maintain and the power is really good. Btw looks like there's a crack on your bikes driveside dropout where the weld is. I could be wrong.

2:19 i usually just tighten the brake cable and then tighten the caliper bolts and then loosen the brake cable. that seems to work fine and i find it's much easier to do atleast for the rear brake.
