>You need disc brakes, goy. Rim brakes have inferior wet weather braking and modulation. What do you mean you don't even know what modulation is?
*pays $400 more for disc brake bike*
>Good choice! And guess what, now that you have disc brakes you can buy better wheels because the brake track won't wear out!
*buys $1500 carbon wheels*
>You *are* going to put tubeless tires on those, right?
*pays $200 for tubeless tires+parts+sealant+installation*
>Awesome! Now you can lower your tire pressure because you don't have to worry about bottoming out and getting a pinch flat.
*drops tire pressure for barely-perceptible comfort improvement*
>Nice, enjoy the ride!
*destroys carbon wheels on a pothole thanks to the low pressure*
>Ohhhh, that's a shame. Sorry the warranty doesn't cover crash damage.
*buys another set of $1500 carbon wheels*
