Enough power and modulation even on the hoods to descend at a reasonable pace. In the drops, if you’re riding in a group, you’ll get people smacking into the back of you!
As a hydraulic/cable mashup, I was expecting the worst of both worlds. In fact, the opposite is true, because with good quality (compressionless) brake cables they feel like a full hydro setup in use, but of course you’re free to choose your own levers.
I’ve briefly tried Shimano R785 and SRAM Force brakes, and they impressed me too, but the TRP’s are much more accessible and give excellent performance too.
