hyd.brakes

[Cgeiera202]

I own a k.h.s. bike, that came with disc brakes. Would a hyd. brake make a huge difference
in stopping.

Disc brakes come in both Hydro and Mechanical forms dude.

If you have Avid Mechanicals, they are pretty damn good. Don't change anything. If any other brand
upgrade to hydro model, Magura is my fav, but Hope and Hayes are awesome too.

Hydros give you better modulation than mechs on the whole.

Hayes are the best by far because aftermarket parts are easy to come by and the preformance is awesome.

only thing I'd add is the fact that hydro's are better if you are in muddy conditions, the
mechanical cables an get mucked up, as where the hyrdo's are covered, and wont give you
that trouble.
