Fizik Aliante R1 Carbon Braided Bike SaddleOne of Fizik's most popular saddles, the Aliante Carbon Bike Saddle has been a firm favourite since 1999 by both professionals and amateur cyclists alike. Featuring exceptional comfort combined with a Twin Flex™ Carbon Kevlar shell it's both lightweight and durable.Integrated Clip SystemThe Integrated Clip System (ICS) is an integrated interface in the saddle's base to allow quick attachment and removal of ICS accessories such as the Fizik saddle Pak and Blink light. It is a clean, easy, fast and secure attachment that does not require any tools.Carbon Braided RailsRather than a conventional solid or tubular rail, Fizik's rails use an outer sleeve of braided carbon fibres forming a tube, with the void inside being filled by unidirectional carbon fibres. This construction is strong, light and stiff.Twin Flex TechnologyTwin Flex construction combines two layers within the shell. A layer of multi-directional carbon fibre provides strength, while a bi-directional layer allows flex for comfort. The two layers are moulded together so that the stiffer outer layer controls the flexibility of the inner layer.Aliante Carbon is for The Bull: Rigid SpineIf you have a relatively low degree of spinal flexibility (more than 90 degrees between your straight legs and back when bending over as far as you can, keeping your legs straight a shoulders’ width apart), you are a Bull. Your degree of Spinal flexibility will top out quite quickly when attempting to adopt the performance position. For this reason, you will rotate your pelvis fully and will benefit from the increased curvature (support) of the Aliante shape.Features:Use: Road, Mountain Bike (MTB)Integrated Clip System compatibleShell: Composite Carbon co-injected Nylon TwinFlexRail: Carbon Braided 7x9mmCover: MicrotexStiffness/Flex: Twin FlexDimensions: 275x140mmWeight: 185gBuy Fizik Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Direct Link: 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. SRAM found that in their 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 backpressure relief, which produces dependable braking power and consistency. Heat Shield: The stainless steel heat shields break the thermal connection between the pad and caliper body, reducing caliper fluid temperature by about 20C even in the most extreme testing conditions.

Ready for aggressive mountain bike rides, the Shimano XT M8000 model features an aluminium lever and caliper construction. This makes it more than capable of handling all the abuse from trailside obstacles and bumps from the rocky terrain. Shimano has also gone a step further by giving this MTB disc brake's lever an anodised finish. This means you'll benefit from an extra layer of durability and corrosion resistance as you weave between the mountain bike trails in all weather conditions. Adjustable MTB Disc Brake Designed for ease of use, this MTB disc brake is kitted out with an adjustable lever reach. This allows you to fine-tune the distance between your handlebar and the lever to perfectly match your hand size, riding style and terrain conditions. As a result, the Shimano XT M8100 Disc Brake is an excellent choice of upgrade for riders who want a more customised braking feel as they blast across the mountain bike trails. Technologies: Servo Wave Action: When you pull a Servowave brake lever, initial pad travel is fast, so little lever movement is needed to bring the pads into contact with the rotor. The power multiplication factor then increases rapidly at the pad-to-rim contact so more of the lever stroke is used to apply greater braking power with improved control. Reach Adjust: Brake lever is equipped with a reach adjust mechanism. The distance from the handlebar grip to lever can be adjusted to suit any hand size, type of riding and individual rider preferences. Free Stroke: The distance from the initial lever position to pad contact point can be adjusted to suit any hand size, type of riding and individual rider preferences. Ice Technologies: The fade, which can occur to disc brake rotors and pads when braking on a long downhill ride, has a negative impact on the braking performance. Shimano has adopted Ice Technologies disc brake rotor and Ice Technologies pad to realise the cooling technology for consistent performance. The clad disc brake rotor blade, which has a 3 layer-sandwich structure of stainless steel, aluminium and stainless steel, provides better radiation performance achieving from 400˚C to 300˚C surface temperature. Also, the radiation fin has been adopted for the pad. Moreover, the clad disc brake rotor blade and the radiator fin provide long pad life, less noise, less fade and lightweight. One Way Bleeding: One Way Bleeding was developed for quick and easy prevention of air in Shimano's hydraulic system. Shimano has streamlined the oil route throughout the system to prevent air bubbles from being captured in the system. One-way oil routing plus a funnel tool with mineral oil provides an easy and clean bleeding system.

This stunning model features quicker piston retraction for instilled downhill confidence and modulation as you shred the trails. Its four-piston construction is specially engineered for conquering every off-road ride as it gives you versatile high-performance braking control. Technologies: Four Piston: A disc brake system with the dual diameter opposed-piston caliper design has differently sized pistons in the front and in the rear. The system adopts a power transfer system in which the disc brake rotor is pressed by the smaller sized piston at the entrance of the disc brake rotor intake and also by the more powerful larger sized piston at the back. This prevents the wobbling motion of the disc brake rotor and reduces noises significantly. The 4-piston caliper also allows a wider contact area for the disc brake rotor while keeping the size compact, and the efficient location of pads is adjusted as necessary to stabilise the pressure. In combination use with the Servowave lever it provides an incredible 50% more stopping power than the previous model. The advanced Saint/Zee disc brake system, which adjusts to accommodate the different braking styles of different riders, offers stable braking power and excellent modulation. Ice Technologies: The fade, which can occur to disc brake rotor and pad when braking on a long downhill ride for instance, has a negative impact on the braking performance. Shimano has adopted Ice Technologies disc brake rotors and Ice Technologies pads to realise the cooling technology for consistent performance. The clad disc brake rotor blade, which has a 3 layer-sandwich structure of stainless steel, aluminium and stainless steel, provides better radiation performance achieving from 400˚C to 300˚C surface temperature. Also, the radiation fin has been adopted for the pad. Moreover, the clad disc brake rotor blade and the radiator fin provide long pad life, less noise, less fade and lightweight.
