Fuck putting HY/RD on it, that's the worst of both worlds
Not sure how you get to that...
I spent five years fixing excavators and forklifts and shit, and I was a bike mechanic too. And I say, fuck hydraulics.
Except those nifty TRP calipers, which give you the self-adjustment, with virtually no expectation of hydro hassles. So you lose a bit of modulation with cables... But that's largely from housing compression, not so much cable stretch - that can be mitigated with beaded housing like Jagwire Elite Link or Nokon or something. Cable friction is another factor, but uncoated die-drawn is the go and nothing else, as any fule kno
