Definitely go with a hydraulic brake on this. There is absolutely zero fuss initially if you don't trim the hose as they come pre-bled.
So much this, especially with the dual piston and the auto adjusting pads.
Don't forget to really bed in the brake, it won't be powerful the first time you tried it (unless pads is organic which wear in quicker).
Difference is also nigh and day when using HY/RD.

Trimming the hose is a simple job - possible to do it without having to bleed the brakes if you are careful too.
Something like a Shimano Deore M615 or SLX are both cheap and very good brakes.
