Theres a fine line between braking hard and braking so hard that you lose traction. Deep Stroke Modulation allows riders to perfectly navigate that line and control even the most powerful brakes with finesse. Heat is an enemy of any brake system, so advancements in heat management, mean advancements in your ride. You see, Avid found that in their systems DOT 5.1 takes almost 3 times longer to boil than DOT 4, thus allowing flawless fade-free performance in even more extreme conditions. Integrated Reservoir With TaperBore Technology Avid have integrated the reservoir and master cylinder on their hydraulic disc-brake levers to create a super-sleek (and even lighter) lever design. MatchMaker Compatible Save weight and clutter on the bar with MatchMaker. This system holds AVID-- levers, a number of SRAM triggers and the RockShox PushLoc control"all with one tidy, light clamp. The term TaperBore-- refers to a unique patent-pending closure system in Avid's Elixir and Code levers. It saves weight, improves lever feedback and most importantly"gives you more power and control. When the only thing between you and the trail is bike maintenance, every second matters. With Avid's top-loading pads, new disc-brake pads can be installed without taking off the wheel, working under the calliper or doing any upside-down pad juggling, so youll be ready to ride quicker. Tri-Align Calliper Positioning System Another original Avid technology making your life better"theres never been an easier brake to install and adjust. With Avids Tri-AlignCalliper Positioning System, aligning the calliper to the rotor literally takes seconds. Just loosen the CPS bolts a little, and then squeeze the brake lever while re-tightening the bolts. Perfect calliper alignment"just like that.
