Tektro Dorado 4 piston brakes on my R500 Integrated install

It was a simple install on the front wheel. The 4 piston caliper fits like glove using an extension to fit into the 203mm rotor. Waiting for the rear extension to arrive. I already installed it on the rear. So far the brakes are superior stops on a dime with no fade so far. Yes it's too early I have a hundred miles but very impressed with the upgrade. I went to Alibaba 200 including delivery to Montreal Canada tax free.

I had to use the stock levers as the electric higo were a different. Still works great, the oil reservoir holds the same amount. Stops at a moment's notice with no modulation.
 
Update: I finally managed to use the Dorado levers and now stops on a dime. It all worked out. Will add new closeups shortly
