SRAM HSX Heat-Shedding Rotor- 6 Bolt

BK.jpg

No more heat buildup at the rim, incredible modulation, predictable and powerful braking in wet and dry conditions -- the list goes on. These are the advantages of moving to a disc setup on your road machine. And so, with the introduction of SRAM's new Red 22 Hydro R (hydraulics for the road) braking group, a specific rotor was needed to complete the system. SRAM took the design of its AVID HSX and gave it a few tweaks for road use. What you receive is the tested design of the heat-shedding HSX, in a package engineered to give you the best braking available in a road groupset.
SRAM's HSX Heat-Shedding Rotor was designed to seamlessly pair with the new Red 22 Hydraulic Road Disc (HRD) setup. The two-piece stainless steel and alloy design utilizes cross-drilled technology for significant weight savings without compromising durability. The new design promotes heat regulation, and shaves around 10 grams over previous AVID models. The cross-drilling also sheds water quickly, resulting in increased stopping power in wet weather.
Because the alloy conducts heat more efficiently, the alloy carrier on this two-piece rotor allows heat to dissipate more quickly than similar one-piece designs. SRAM recommends using the 160mm rotors for pavement and the 140mm size for off-road/cyclocross use.
SRAM has placed a 250lb rider/bicycle weight limit on the 160mm rotor, recommending a bump to a 180mm if need be.
The SRAM HSX Heat-Shedding Rotor is available in 140mm, and 160mm sizes. It uses the IS 6-bolt mounting pattern.
