You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
I'm desperate to get rid of the awful cable discs that came on my caad x so am keen to get something different as soon as possible. The tiagra ones look like the best bet but I can't find any info on when they will be available? Cheers
Now, Madison have them in stock.
They come in flat mount only....
You can buy the levers separately - £150 each - and add hoses/calipers if you don't have a flat mount bike.
Is there no way to adapt the flat mount calipers?

No
The 105 level ones are only £50 more and available in post mount. So makes it almost seem worth it to go 11 speed.
I'm probably going to hang on until my tiagra is worn out and just do a full swap.
Hmmm. Think I might just try some bb7s or trp spyres instead as it's beginning to sound very expensive considering the bike is just my commuter.
I wouldn't bother with different cable disc set ups. There is the hy/Rd or v-twin options also.
I'd recommend Hy-Rds instead of BB7s if you are going down that route (based on using BB7s for many years of commuting)
