Avid Elixir 7 Disc Brake
The Avid Elixir 7 is a wee bit lighter than the Avid Elixir 3 and it features tool-free reach adjustment.
- TaperBore master cylinder with integrated reservoir delivers a more linear lever action and enables the creation of a lever that is super sleek.
- The tapered bore also helps eliminate wear and tear on the seals and should guarantee longer service life.
- Tool-free reach adjustment.
- Two-piece calliper with upsized pistons (over Juicy) delivers more clamping force.
- Top-loading pads for easier replacement and faster heat dissipation.
- Ambidextrous mount aluminium lever.
- HS-1 Rotor - utilizing cross-drilled technology, the lightweight HS series stays cooler when your run heats up, offers enhanced wet-weather performance and takes braking to a whole new level of smooth.
- MatchMaker compatible.
- Dot 5.1 fluid takes almost 3 times longer to boil than DOT 4, thus allowing flawless fade-free performance in extreme conditions.
- Weight: 446g including hardware, alloy lever, calliper, cable and 180mm rotor (based upon weighing one example of this product at Edinburgh Bicycle Co-op's head office in October 2011).
Skimping on features just isn’t our style. That’s why Elixir 7 combines the proven precision and feel of the Elixir line, bringing to the table many of the features found in Elixir 9, including next-generation TaperBore technology, HS1 rotors, and a revamped port system that makes Elixir 7 a snap to bleed.
