Just got my Levo SL Comp Alloy and loving the ride so far.
Overall the bike is more capable than I am at this point.
One thing I am not so fond of so far are the brakes, the Guide RE brakes seem to have plenty of power but modulation is a bit lacking and often find myself grabbing a little too much and unsettling the suspension.
I have been thinking of doing following upgrades to address it.
1. Upgrade to a 200mm rotor in the back - seems to be fairly simple with just a new rotor and spacer
2. Upgrade Levers to Sram Code R levers - found a set of levers for sale and have heard that guide RE calipers with Code R levers is a big improvement in modulation.
Anyone do similar setup wof running the Guide RE calipers with Code R levers?
