>>1442004>Generally much better braking force for given effortMy rim brakes can already flip me over the bars with insignificant hand force if I want them to. If braking is too much effort you need to work in some finger exercises.
>Better modulation even on low-end cable calipers, uncomparably so on hydraulic ones>muh modulationI either want to go or stop. I don't give a shit about micromanaging my deceleration.
>Better performance in any weathert. has to ride in rain and snow
>Easier to install and adjust, forgiving to slightly untrue rimst. wrenchlet
>Rims are lighter, reducing rotational massJust checked a couple random mid/high end wheelsets and the rim brake versions are lighter
>Got so cheap that there's no excuse not to switchBought new bike last year, the disk brake version would've been $400 more.
