Hydraulic disc brakes or lightweight rim brakes?

You can buy road bikes with Shimano 105 with either disc brakes or rim brakes. Road bikes with disc brakes, also known as discs, define a new standard. They are more efficient than a road bike with rim brakes and will bring any rider to a complete standstill in good or bad weather. The brake grips harder, which is why you have a shorter braking distance. Although rim brakes are lighter, they lose this advantage due to longer braking distances.
