Never bothered to ask about spelling, grammar, punctuation or capitalisation then?
Never mind.
Hydro brakes offer a lot more power and modulation than cables, which is particularly good on long descents. They feel very different, so if it were me, I would upgrade both at the same time to keep consistancy on both ends.
I'd also try and get something a bit further up the range from entry level. My Elixr 5 are so much better than the Juicy 3's they replaced its not funny, but the Elixr CR's on the other bike are not a significant improvement over the 5's.
Thanks for the comments.
Better??
Much better.
Thanks.
