Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The TOWN HYBRID Exc 500 Trapeze comes with Hydraulic Rim brakes. These brakes are pretty rare, and you will find them on very few bike models. In short, you can look for a bike with disk or hydraulic disk brakes.
