To adjust hydraulic disc brakes on a bicycle, start by loosening the mounting bolts on the caliper to center it over the rotor. Then, squeeze the brake lever a few times to align the caliper properly. Next, tighten the mounting bolts and check for any rubbing or uneven braking. If needed, adjust the brake pads using the adjustment knobs on the caliper. Finally, test the brakes to ensure they are working smoothly and efficiently.

What are the advantages of using bicycle disk brakes over traditional rim brakes?
Bicycle disk brakes offer better stopping power, especially in wet conditions, and are less affected by rim wear. They also provide more consistent braking performance and require less maintenance compared to traditional rim brakes.
Why do bicycle disk brakes squeak and how can I fix this issue?
Bicycle disk brakes squeak due to vibrations between the brake pads and rotor. To fix this issue, try cleaning the rotor and brake pads with rubbing alcohol or sandpaper, adjust the brake calipers for proper alignment, and bed in the brake pads by braking gently multiple times. If the squeaking persists, consider replacing the brake pads or rotor.

Why aren't hydraulic brakes used for rear wheels when the same is used for the front wheels?
All modern mass-produced cars and light trucks DO have hydraulic brakes on the front and the rear wheels. Heavy trucks generally have air brakes on all the wheels. Maybe you are thinking of cars that have disk brakes on the front and drum brakes on the rear? On cars, these are both hydraulically operated using the same hydraulic (brake) fluid. In normal stopping situations, the front brakes do more work than the rear brakes. Maybe 70 or 80% of the braking is done by the front wheels (it depends on where the weight is in the car and how fast you stop). Disk brakes are a somewhat better brake for a car, but drum brakes are a little cheaper to manufacture. So, disk brakes are almost always used on the front wheels where the braking is more important. Drum brakes are used on the back of some cars to save money. Note that performance cars (sports cars) almost always have disk brakes on all of the wheels.
