what hydraulic mountain bike brakes would people recomend for bikepacking/touring?
Get some TRP Spykes and some decent levers. If they can stop @BareNecessities at BPW, they'll stop you and your touring rig, and for bonus points, will be utterly bomb proof, use an easily sourced Shimano pad, and I challenge anyone to break one in normal use that renders it unfixable by the roadside, providing you have a spare brake cable...
Failing that, I'd start at SLX if you are considering Shimano.

advice needed.. what hydraulic mountain bike brakes would people recomend for bikepacking/touring?
Want something reliable, doesn't need to be v pretty or lightweight, just good at slowing me down and not going to go wrong in the middle of nowhere and preferably cheap :)
