Cane Creek SL Road Brake
Origin:
The SL traces is heritage to our 200SL road brake, which established itself as a staple of road bikes on a weight-purging diet. By switching from conventional dual-pivot brakes to a pair of 200SLs, road riders could knock off at least 70 grams—enough of a savings to be a performance upgrade in its own right.
The SL advances the performance edge even further. The original 200SL’s weighed a svelte 125g per caliper but the new SL adds the superior performance of a dual pivot with only a 7g increase in weight. That’s proven performance that you can’t pass up.
Construction:
The SL's Dual Pivot design musters plenty of stopping power and precise control, because we've optimized all the ingredients. The brake arms start out strong as cold-forged aluminum and are CNC-machined to relieve weight without sacrificing integrity. Titanium hardware provides the other main source of gram reduction, bringing the SLs in at a world-beating 264 grams a pair. The adjustable spring tension helps provide a light yet powerful feel while the Kool-Stop Cartridge brake pads assure the rider of precise control in all conditions.
