This is replacing like for like with an older 5000 TL that I had on the shelf, not sure if the new replacement model 5000 S is easier. I'll probably find out next year :/

I've got a Pedro's DH lever, but not about to ruin my wife's rear wheel just yet :p
I have heard the 5000str is better than the 5000stl. I have also heard it still sucks. Zero availability and the pain of install got me some regular tires for half the price. 5000s
