Meet the new standard for hard-hitting, heavy-duty braking. We added 15% extra piston power and 30% more volume in
the lever reservoir, ensuring peak performance for the full run. And with SwingLink™ and Lever Pivot Bearing
technologies, lever feel remains smooth and progressive, no matter how hard the pull. Go deeper and grab more power.
Technology
Bleeding Edge
With this new caliper fluid circuitry, the bleed port has been moved to the bottom of the caliper, and all four
piston bores can communicate. This way, during bleeding fluid naturally fills the caliper, resulting in an easier,
more consistent bleed.
Contact Point Adjustment
Some people like the instantaneous power of a short lever throw. Others prefer the feel of a longer throw. With
Contact Point Adjust, you can pick the position you want your fingers to be in when your brakes are engaged.
It’s a quick and easy way to customize the feel of your brakes without having to move the pads. It’s also a way
to balance both brake levers to feel exactly the same.
Lever Pivot Bearings
Precision sealed bearings at the lever pivot enhance the clean, crisp lever actuation and consistent, light,
one-finger feel.
MatchMaker Compatible
Save weight and clutter on the bar with MatchMaker. This system holds SRAM levers, a number of SRAM triggers and
RockShox PushLoc controls – all with one tidy, light clamp.
MatchMaker X Integrated
The MatchMaker X clamp is more than just a clamp. It’s like having Martha Stewart tidy up your cockpit. Since
each clamp accepts up to three controls, you can put everything from your XLoc suspension lockout, your SRAM
shifters, SRAM brake levers and AVID brake levers as well as your Reverb XLoc remote, all on two clamps. Short
of genetically engineering longer thumbs, it’s the ideal way to put everything within easy reach. Just like
Martha would.
PiggyBack Reservoir
The brake fluid reservoir on SRAM’s latest lever design is optimized 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 without hassle.
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.
SwingLink
Squeeze a SRAM brake lever and you notice it immediately. Less deadband. More positive engagement. A new cam
system requires less lever throw to push the pads toward the rotor. That’s great, but there’s more to perfect
braking performance than just power. You need control. Many brake systems minimize deadband—but at the cost of
modulation. SwingLink solves that with its special cam shape. When the pads contact the rotor, the leverage rate
curve is flat and smooth, avoiding that “on/off” brake feel. It’s the perfect balance of power and precision.
Timing Port Closure
A hydraulic brake’s timing port is the connection between the reservoir and the lever cylinder bore. When the
lever is squeezed, a cup seal passes this area and closes the port, which pressurizes the system. SRAM’s timing
port closure system features durable seals and an ultra-smooth cylinder bore finish producing dependable braking
power and consistency.
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.
Heat Shield
The stainless steel heat shield breaks the thermal connection between the pad and caliper body, reducing caliper
fluid temperature by about 20°C even in the most extreme testing conditions.
