You might go full hydraulic wired with the red 2-wire connectors that fit most bikes. They're not 4 piston unless your count front/rear

Strong locking and braking force. The cable angle is adjustable. The caliper cable connector is rotatable and has no pressure like fixing the cable. 4 piston caliper structure makes the brake pad have stronger braking force and higher stability.

That's what we did. No need to rewire. I think the new calipers cost 30 bucks on amazon. Much smoother and less noise. It was so long ago, I forgot exactly what brand but I'm sure a search up top will lead the OP to the promised land. Here I did a quick search...

I decided to go for the best ones for my Rad Rover and like them a lot. There are others on Amazon that are much less expensive. I'll probably buy a set for my Rad Mini sometime and compare the two. These are what I bought:

Save your money. No need to put 200 dollar brakes on an 800 dollar bike. The cheap Zooms will work just fine. I did it...

Plus if you don't put on good compressionless housing they are not going to be too much better.

I installed the Zoom Xtech HB100 cable operated hydraulic brakes on my Lectric XP 2.0 step through. At the same time, I installed new 180mm front and 160mm rear discs and Jagwire cables and cable housings. Everything came from Amazon. Easy, inexpensive project and good results.

Installed used the bottoms of stock brakes to keep same height had to pull the front caliper towards the fork cause it was playing a tune on the spokes

 

[FatChance]

That is one of the reasons I installed a 180mm brake disk on the front of my XP 2.0 with the Xtech calipers. That places the front caliper radially outward a little bit so the Xtech caliper does not interfere with the rotating spokes.

Did just that 180 my a little color to
