Hydraulic brakes, also known as hydraulic disc brakes, are a type of braking system that uses hydraulic fluid to transmit pressure from the brake lever to the braking mechanism. Some synonyms for hydraulic brakes include hydraulic disc brakes, hydraulic rim brakes, and hydraulic caliper brakes. These synonyms refer to different variations of hydraulic braking systems that use either disc or rim brakes, or caliper brakes, respectively. Other synonyms for hydraulic brakes may include fluid brakes or oil brakes, which refer to the use of hydraulic fluid to generate braking force. Regardless of the terminology used, hydraulic brakes are a reliable and efficient option for any vehicle that requires stopping power.
