Wileyone now you're talking showing that bike porn! As the OP of this thread I didn't really start it to debate which brake system was better but more to see which look people thought was hotter. I think we've probably flogged this dead horse enough and conclude that everyone has an opinion and that's a great thing. I also don't see it as not keeping up with the times. Biking for most people in the 50+ group is recreational, so you should choose what you like. If I was trying to run a professional race team and decided that vintage steele with rim brakes was the way to go, then I would need to get with the times!

Rim or disc brake, show us your hot bikes.
