Description
The SRAM Red 22 disc brake caliper assembly provides top-of-the-line braking performance for road cycling enthusiasts. As part of SRAM's flagship Red series, it is designed to work seamlessly with all SRAM road hydraulic brake levers. This caliper features an 18mm piston size, suitable for both front and rear wheel applications, offering a consistent and controlled braking force.
The caliper is equipped with steel-backed organic pads, which are known for providing smooth and quiet stopping power, and are especially effective in dry conditions. Organic pads also tend to have a more immediate bite compared to metallic pads, offering a more responsive feel at the lever.
This model is a flat-mount caliper, which is the preferred standard for modern road bikes due to its sleek and integrated design that mounts flush with the frame or fork.
The system uses DOT fluid for its hydraulic actuation, ensuring reliable performance and a consistent feel across various temperatures and riding conditions.
