Constructed with a cast alloy for the radial-type brake lever and the calipers, it doesn’t just look good, it’s much lighter than previous models too. Suitable for everything from aggressive downhill to leisure riding, its design prevents heat build-up for fade-free braking on long descents. Also, although this mountain bike brake may just have the standard two pistons per caliper, its larger brake fluid capacity brings you a braking power increase of 25% over the M2 model.
