CX bikes with hydraulic Shimano 105?

[the_marsbar]

Does anyone know of bikes with the new hydraulic 105 brakes (ST-RS505)? I haven't been able to find any.

I just saw a Ridley at Performance bike that had them on it.

Probably it will be specced on many more bikes next year. We will see I guess.

Have seen some German friends of mine who got the 105 hydro on some new Cube CX bikes

Did anyone get the chance to use the rs505 ? Or played with it ?

I'm hesitating between that and other options. Hard to go wrong with Shimano.

I've rs685 brakes on my scott addict gravel.. Generally not a big fan of shimano equipment and can tell it feels very hard on the bars and makes riding similar to tourist bike)) Yesterday played with 105 hydraulic shifters at LBS.. if you pull the brake lever hard it really abuts to bars!! U can't adjust reach because it set to farthest position from factory. And all other lever adjustments are absent. That's enough for me I don't have this bug with 685 shifters, but read about this several times on the net.. 670 gr for the shifters!
Finally bought full sram red hydraulic

I read that you do have reach adjustement ?!

"Reach and free stroke adjustment enable custom feel and fitment for all hands"

How much do you save weight with the RED Hydro ?

[addict]

rs685 have only reach "adjustment".. but in farthest position lever is about one finger from the bars.
I can't got exact weight of sram red shifter because it connected to hydro line, but approximate weight 180-200gr.

STRS685 has both free stroke and reach adjustment.
Please see dealer manual si.shimano.com pages 70-71

only in tech docs.. not in reality

[TurboKoo]

I have those brakes and have fully functional adjustments.

[addict]

hmmm.. can you send me photo of adjustment screw from the down side of the shifter? under the lever.. may be I'm old and blind(

sorry my friend! I found this screw.. Ok _two_ adjustments but totally useless, because both at the uttermost position and any tuning make things worse..
sorry for flame

Do the bleeding when both adjustments are open otherwise there is not that much change.
