The clad steel/alloy/steel rotor construction allows heat generated from braking to radiate quickly through the aluminium core achieving surface temperature drops of around 50 deg C. When used with Ice Tech pads surface temperatures can drop from around 400 to 300 deg C, this provides great improvements in performance all round Ice Tech rotors achieve long pad life, less noise and less fade due to improved heat dispersion. Rotor contact surface has been developed for excellent pad clearing and cooling which increases pad performance and life.
This Shimano Sora brake caliper has a cable-operated mechanical disc brake design, which means that you can upgrade to discs using existing compatible road bike levers or Shimano Total Integration (STI) levers. It's ideal for everything from road use to challenging multi-terrain cyclocross (CX) courses.
This brake pad cooling technology offers smooth and reliable performance that is ideal for steep descents and rides where you will be using your brakes a lot. Compatible with the following Shimano Models: BR-M820 BR-M640
Designed to keep you in control over even the most challenging terrain, the SRAM Level T disc brake has a super-tough construction. This consists of stamped alloy levers and stainless steel hardware. The lever is also reach-adjustable so you can set it up to your exact preferences. Also, if you run a SRAM drivetrain, it's MatchMaker™ compatible for combing with compatible gear shifters to help you tidy up your bike’s cockpit. This is a complete disc brake with lever, hose and caliper - it comes fully assembled, pre-bled and ready for use. Technologies: 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. 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. 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. 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 pressurises 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.
Level TLM puts proven SRAM braking performance and consistency at your fingertips, in a sleek, lightweight design optimized specifically for cross-country and light trail use.

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. Reach Adjust Brake lever fit and feel is a personal thing. Riders have individual positioning preferences, as well as unique hand sizes and finger lengths. Reach Adjust makes it easy to adjust your lever for maximum one-finger control for everyone. Dead Band This refers to the time between the moment you engage the lever and when the pads contact the rotor. SRAM technologies such as SwingLink balance the dual demands of minimizing deadband and optimizing modulation for braking finesse and control. 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.
