No big reason other than a) novelty b) reliability and a certain amount of set and forget and c) they're in stock and surprisingly are a comparable price to BB7 or TRPs. I think if I was building this up more as a travel/rinko style bike I'd go with mechanical to avoid the undue hassle.

Yeah, I still find it hard to believe that you can get a full hydro setup for less than the mechanical calipers.
But then again I know and appreciate BB7s so I just use those.

They are also waaaay better at slowing you down.

Go MT4! This bike needs it. Also, if its the only brake in stock and you want to ride the bike this side of the end of times, then surely its your best bet?
