Whether you're spending the day on your favourite local trail routes or enjoying a weekend-long epic mountain adventure, this hydraulic disc brake is engineered for smooth and consistent braking performance. It features a high-quality aluminium lever, which provides optimum comfort and performance as you apply pressure. Shimano has also kitted out this trail-ready model with an adjustable lever reach, which allows you to easily fine-tune the gap between the lever blade and your handlebar. As a result, you'll benefit from a more rider-tuned braking feel that can be set up to match your riding style for perfect custom fit. High Power Four Piston Disc Brake Caliper This disc brake's caliper features consistent braking performance and reliable stopping power in all conditions. The four-piston caliper instils greater downhill confidence thanks to its opposed design, which reduces the leading effect while its optimal pad wear increases braking control. This makes it powerful and consistent as you conquer your way from trail to trail at speed.

Ideal for Cross-Country and trail use, it benefits from technology such as an expandable bladder and TPC Plus™. Technology Highlight(s): TPC™ Plus, DirectLink™ Pad/Holder: Top-loading Intended Use: XC/Trail Tri-Align Caliper Positioning System: No Tool-Free Pad Replacement: Yes Stainless Hardware: Yes Technologies: 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. PiggyBack™ Reservoir: The brake fluid reservoir on SRAM’s latest lever design is optimised 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 style without hassle. 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. TPC Plus™ (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 to pressurise the system. SRAM’s new timing port closure system, called TPC Plus, features durable seals and an ultra-smooth cylinder bore finish producing dependable braking power and consistency. DOT 5.1™: Heat is an enemy of any brake system, so advancements in heat management mean advancements in your ride. SRAM found that DOT 5.1 takes almost three times longer to boil than DOT 4, thus allowing flawless, fade-free performance in even more extreme conditions.
