  • Braking at the bottom will cause less wear.
    Because air resistance also has a braking effect, and it increases with your speed, squared.
    So the faster you go, the more energy will be bled off from wind resistance.

    Also, braking strongly in short bursts is better than letting your brakes rub continuously. That will cause them to overheat and glaze the brake pads, destroying them.
