Lambton Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 hi, i dont think you can beat hydraulic rim brakes, they give the best feel and have the best stopping power. If you have a set of HS33s set up properly with a good set of pads on suitable to a ground or unground rim, they will be a more agressive break than anu V-brake and most disc brakes.You will not go back to V-brakes once you have tried HS33s.

You obviously havnt had much experience with brakes then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
