Should a substitute driving car use hydraulic brakes or cable brakes?

There is no absolute answer as to which is better; it depends on personal preference. Introduction to hydraulic brakes: Hydraulic brakes provide excellent braking performance with minimal effort and offer a great feel. The downside is that they may leak oil over time, regardless of the brand, and if they break, they are difficult to repair on your own—you’ll need to take them to a specialized shop. Introduction to cable brakes: Cable brakes don’t have this issue, though their feel isn’t as good as hydraulic brakes, but the braking performance is similar. Compared to hydraulic brakes, the working principle of cable brakes is much simpler. Cable brakes mainly use the force of a metal brake cable to pull the caliper piston, which then pushes the brake pads to generate braking.
