As a larger rider, 6’6” 275lbs, I am feeling this this bike struggled to slow down. I bought this bike as a back up bike for my full squish and a way to get out on days where snow or rain has the trails a bit questionable. But I have found I really enjoy the ride this bike provides even with its heavier weight.
So last week I cranked up the tire pressure and hit some flow style trails, only to feel like the brakes were feeling under powered. Currently 160 and 180 rotors with seam level t levers. What would any fellow fat bikers recommend for improving my braking experience? Larger rotors? Upgrading brakes? Or maybe different pads? Everything is stock in the brake dept.
