Please note standard black levers are supplied with a silver clamp and black bolts. Other variations are as shown in the product images.
- Lever body made of
Carbotecture, offering a great strength-to-weight ratio!
- New forged aluminium lever blade matches the aesthetics of the 'MT' range of disc brakes (but please note these and the MT range are
not cross-compatible).
- Lever blade is notably broader and slightly more rounded than previous models, making it very comfortable.
- '4-finger' lever blade model offers increased power over shorter, '2-finger' models.
- '2-finger' lever blade feels stiffer than '4-finger' counterpart.
- Two-bolt handlebar clamp means you don't have to remove your grip to get the lever on/off.
- New TPA system has the functional components made exclusively from steel to improve durability, and has indexed 90° turns to ensure it stays put.
- Reach is taken care of by the T25 screw in the front of the lever blade. Unscrewing the screw moves the end of the lever blade closer to the handlebar.
- Bleeding system is the same as the pre-2011 brakes - attach a full syringe to the slave cylinder, remove the bleed screw in the lever, then push fluid through from the bottom. Please note that a regular bleed hose will NOT screw into the bleed port, trying to do so will damage the thread.
- Lever works for either way up for both left and right hand braking, simply turn it over!
- Lever clamp may be supplied in black or silver, colour selection refers to the main body of the lever.
- Includes M9 shroud nut and olive.
- Sold individually.
- Weight: 92g
Important Information:
Bleed screw requires VERY little torque, just a 'nip' into place - maximum 0.5Nm. Sealing is created by an O Ring on the bleed screw, not by the underside of the head of the screw, so it does not need to be tight at all. Damage due to over-tightening is not covered by warranty.
To correctly fit the lever to the handlebar, the bolt with the arrows pointing towards it must be gently tightened first until the gap is closed, then the other bolt should be nipped down. Do NOT tighten this bolt right down, normally there will be a gap of around 2-3mm when the lever is tight on the bars. Over-tightening the bolts or not following this procedure is likely to crack the lever clamp and this is not covered under warranty.
