The best brakes are at Escapa, from brands like SRAM.
The Sram Code RSC Brakeis the right tool for slowing down riders who ride with more power, speed, and intensity. It utilizes proven technologies and design elements from the SRAM Guide. With a larger PiggyBack reservoir and a four-piston brake caliper with a larger diameter, it delivers consistent and reliable performance for all high-load applications. Bleeding Edge technology makes maintenance a breeze.
Code RSC incorporates the elements that made Guide a flagship model in terms of design and performance, and delivers 15% more power to excel in all heavy-duty applications. The SwingLink and ball-bearing lever ensure a smooth, progressive lever feel, while the 30% increase in brake fluid volume guarantees consistent, flawless performance even during harder, more frequent braking or when braking heavier loads.
Bleeding Edge
Bleeding Edge technology allows for quick and easy brake bleeding. Thanks to the new fluid channel and the newly designed bleed port, fluid can be pumped through the brake caliper more easily. A special adapter can be inserted into the bleed port to seal the system and prevent air and fluid loss.
Pressure Point Adjustment
Some people like the immediate power transfer of a short lever travel. Others prefer the feel of a longer lever travel. With the pressure point setting, you can determine the position where your fingers should be placed to engage the brakes. This allows you to quickly and easily adjust the feel of your brakes to your needs.
Reach adjustment
The fit and ergonomics of the brake lever are a very personal matter. Riders have individual position preferences, as well as unique hand sizes and finger lengths. With the reach adjustment, the lever can be easily adjusted for maximum control with just one finger.
POINT 5.1
Heat is the enemy of all braking systems. Better heat management will also make your ride considerably safer. SRAM has found that DOT 5.1 takes three times longer to reach its boiling point than DOT 4. This ensures smooth, unending braking power in even more extreme conditions.
Expandable bladder
SRAM’s new brake lever design features a new bubble shape that can be used to regulate and reduce air bubbles. The bladder is specially shaped to pump air out of the lever and deliver fluid exactly where it’s needed. The result is improved backpressure relief for reliable, consistent braking performance.
SwingLink
If you pull a new SRAM brake lever, you’ll notice the difference immediately. A shorter free travel. Optimized brake pad engagement. The new Levo design means a shorter lever travel is required to push the brake pads against the brake rotor. That’s fine, but more than just power is important for perfect braking performance. You need control. Many braking systems offer a shorter free travel, but at the expense of modulation. SwingLink solves this problem with its special Levo shape. When the brake pads touch the brake disc, the force is modulated and the “stuck” braking sensation is prevented. This creates the perfect balance between power and precision.
Top-mount brake pads
If a bike repair is keeping you from getting back on the track as soon as possible, every second counts. Thanks to our top-mount disc brake pads, you don’t have to remove the wheel, work under the caliper, or contort your fingers—and you’ll be back on the track much faster.
