For aero disciplines, hydraulic disc brakes can reveal a whole new world of speed savings. Less time slowing down means more time going fast. Better brakes mean faster splits, thanks to confidence-inspiring brake performance. Hydraulic aero brakes also allow for more aerodynamic frame designs, lower hand effort, shorter braking distances, and easier changes between wheelsets. SRAM Aero HRD is unconditional braking for unconditional riders.

Levers are solid, and a niche thing for TT bikes. I for the life of me can't understand why Sram sends levers/calipers sets pre-filled with fluid. You have to cut them, no one is running cables externally, and no one is needing 3 extra feet of housing either, so you have to at the very least shorten the hoses, most likely shorten and internally route.
Why are the lines filled with fluid?!?! All it does is make a mess and most likely another step in the factory that is costing money. Just send the lines with some barbs and olives, maybe a spare if you want to actually be cool, and a bottle of fluid, and off we go. No mess. I'd even be fine with no fluid included if there's a shipping restriction I'm not aware of, I'll go get my own.
But, functionally the levers are fine, do what they are supposed to and are light enough. I do wish Sram would stop already with the DOT fluid too.
