What is the use of disc brake in cycle?

The brake mechanisms are mounted on the frame somewhere near the upper part of the wheels. In comparison, disc brakes sit at the center of each wheel and stop the bike by squeezing a brake pad against a rotor mounted around the hub. They feature superior stopping power, especially in sloppy conditions.
