Information
Avid Elixir R 160 Hydraulic Disc Brakes
The Avid Elixir R hydraulic disc brake from SRAM delivers pure, simple performance that you can count on every time you grip the levers. Like all of Avid's new hydraulic disc brakes, it features TaperBore Technology, tool-free reach adjustment, Power Reserve Geometry, Tri-Align Caliper Positioning System, and drip-free bleeding. Sure, it lacks the Elixir CR's carbon lever and adjustable banjo, but then again, it also costs less. Pair it up with the SRAM X7 family and you've got yourself a whole heap of priceless riding ahead of you.- Large, two-piece, forged aluminum caliper with sintered, top-loading pads increases power transfer, ease of use and stiffness
- Organic compound pads reduce friction
- Tri-Align Caliper Positioning System uses inboard/outboard pad adjuster knobs to simplify caliper and rotor alignment - what you get is an equal feel from both front and rear brakes and maximum power delivery
- Low X-factor pivot design with Power Reserve Geometry reduces the lever's inward travel, creating an arc that's closer to your fingers' natural motion for greater stopping power
- TaperBore Technology eliminates the need for an independent reservoir which not only saves weight, but provides better braking power and control
- Ambidextrous levers and tool-free reach adjustment let you customize your riding style
- Bend Zone lever blades let you replace just the blade in case of a crash, instead of the entire lever
- Split lever clamp design is MatchMaker compatible
- G3 Clean Sweep rotor uses varying sizes and shapes of cutouts for a more consistent feeling braking surface and vastly improved heat dissipation
- DOT 5.1 brake fluid delivers flawless performance in the most extreme conditions
