— during the operation of such systems, braking is carried out by pressing the pads against a special disk mounted on the wheel, and the braking force from the handle is provided by mechanical traction — usually a flexible cable. The main advantage of disc systems over rim systems is high braking power; in addition, they are less susceptible to pollution, insensitive to the rim bents and do not require adjustment so often. Because of this, brakes of this type are often installed on mid-range and high-end bikes. Among the shortcomings can be called a significant weight and difficulty in repair.| mechanical disc | clear | Save List |
