    Powerful and responsive, the Avid Elixir 5 disc brake offers high-end performance features in a value-laden package for assertive braking on the trails.

    • Taperbore Technology™ supplies excellent power and control, and offers enhanced lever feedback for great feel; integrated reservoir provides a clean, sleek look
    • Get more forceful braking with less effort with the Power Reserve Geometry design, which places the lever pivot point closer to your fingers' natural motion
    • Stiff 2-piece caliper uses DOT 5.1 brake fluid which increases heat resistance on the large, powerful pistons for consistent power that doesn't fade away as things heat up
    • Ambidextrous mounting and tooled reach adjustment of lever provides easy removal, flopping and tuning for a custom setup; compatible with MatchMakerX clamps
    • Sintered compound brake pads load from the top so changing them is about as easy as it gets
    • Elixir 5 hydraulic disc brake includes 1 lever, 1 caliper, pre-bled hydraulic line, 6-bolt 160mm HS1 rotor and mounting hardware; choose from front or rear

    Imported.
