No. Nor are they any worse. A well-made cable brake will perform just as well, and in some cases, better, than some hydraulics. Each system has its own benefits and merits. A hydraulic system is better sealed, and requires no cable changes. A cable brake is sealed just as well at the caliper, but will require periodic cable maintenance. Cable brakes generally weigh more than hydraulics, but you generally get the trade-off with more adjustability.
