SRAM Level Ultimate Disc BrakeThis top-quality disc brake is engineered for cross country as well as light trail use. Coming equipped with the same technologies that were used in the Downhill World Championship, this model packs everything into a smaller and lighter-weight XC-optimised package. Its carbon fibre lever blade pulls crisp and clean thanks to its smooth pivot bearings and the powerful DirectLink design. Finally, it maintains a state-of-the-art heat management system and sleek piston point actuation, giving you braking power exactly when and how you need it.Features: Lever Material: Carbon Hardware Material: Titanium Rotor: 2-piece Pad: Aluminium-backed organic Fluid: DOT 5.1 Adjustment: Tooled reach adjust Use: XC, Trail System: Open systemTechnologies: Bleeding Edge: Bleeding Edge technology makes bleeding brakes quick and simple. An updated fluid path and bleed porting make it easier to push fluid through the caliper. A dedicated bleed adapter plugs into the bleed port and seals the system to minimize air contamination and fluid loss. DirectLink: SRAM's DirectLink lever design produces a solid, positive feel the second you squeeze the lever to engage the brake It offers a no-nonsense solution to give you precise control. DOT 5.1: Heat is an enemy of any brake system, so advancements in heat management mean advancements in your ride. We found that in our systems DOT 5.1 takes almost three times longer to boil than DOT 4, thus allowing flawless, fade-free performance in even more extreme conditions. Expandable Bladder: SRAM's new brake lever design includes a reshaped bladder that helps regulate and reduce air bubbles. The bladder is specifically shaped to evacuate air from the lever and push the fluid exactly where it's needed. The result is improved back-pressure relief, which produces dependable braking power and consistency. Heat Shield: The stainless steel heat shields breaks the thermal connection between the pad and caliper body, reducing caliper fluid temperature by about 20C even in the most extreme testing conditions. Lever Pivot Bearings: Precision sealed bearings at the lever pivot enhance the clean, crisp lever actuation and consistent, light, one-finger feel. MatchMaker and MMX Compatible: Save weight and clutter on the bar with Matchmaker. It holds Avid levers, SRAM triggers, and various RockShox controls, all with one tidy, light, clamp--a dream come true for handlebar component footprint conservationists the world over. Available in two versions: Matchmaker X integrates the RockShoxXLoc and is compatible with XX and X0 brakes. Standard Matchmakeris also available and works with any split-clamp design and RockShox PushLoc. PiggyBack Reservoir: The brake fluid reservoir on SRAM's latest lever design is optimized for both performance and ease of use. The PiggyBack Reservoir offers a simple, failsafe way to manage brake fluid, and also allows for ambidextrous lever placement—so you can switch your levers on the handlebar and run them moto without hassle. Timing Port Closure: A hydraulic brake's timing port is the connection between the reservoir and the master cylinder bore. When the lever is squeezed, a cup seal passes this area and closes the port, which pressurizes the system. SRAM's new timing port closure system features durable seals and an ultra-smooth cylinder bore finish, producing dependable braking power and consistency.Buy SRAM Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
