By the way, hydraulic disc brakes road bike are the future.
There's nothing like overtaking every single roadie on their best carbon bike when descending Aubisque, Soulor, Tourmalet and Aspin.
It's amazing how little effort required to brakes my overloaded bicycle to a standstill, one finger is usually enough, meaning I can brake a lots later before a corner and not have to worry about overheating the rims.
That was just with the TRP HY/RD.
