4-Piston Brakes

SRAM Code and SRAM G2 are the series that rely on the 4-piston brake system. A 4-piston disc brake has four brake pistons per brake caliper, which means two brake pads per piston. With the same leverage, 4-piston brakes have more braking power than 2-piston brakes due to the larger friction surface. Freeriders and endurists benefit especially from the higher braking power.

2-Piston Brakes

The SRAM Level, on the other hand, uses the 2-piston system. Such a has, unlike the 4-piston system, two brake pistons per caliper, meaning one brake pad per piston. That said, a 2-piston brake still brakes great and is a bit lighter than the 4-piston brake. The advantage that cross-country riders and trail bikers count on.

Maven

SRAM Maven

With the new SRAM Maven, you get the most out of the trail: set the braking point where you want, not where you have to. Compared to the legendary Code, SRAM has increased braking power by another 50% - for less fatigue and even more defined braking points. The Swinglink in the brake lever ensures a progressive actuation of the slave piston, providing absolute control even when precise and sensitive braking maneuvers are required. The new SRAM Maven: your ticket to the hot seat!

SRAM Code

The SRAM Code is the series with the largest pistons – four in number – and the best braking performance of all SRAM MTB brakes. It shows its strengths in Enduro, Downhill and Freeride area to master the most complex requirements. The metallic pads of the Code ensure maximum braking power and long durability.

SRAM G2

G2 is the successor of the Guide. SRAM has made three major changes to the G2: it now comes with a stiffer brake caliper, a completely new interior and improved brake levers. SRAM's goal is to provide you with the best combination of power, control, reduced finger fatigue and heat resistance.

SRAM Level

With the Level, SRAM has developed a brake for cross-country and trail use. It guarantees optimum braking power while also saving as much weight as possible. The carbon brake levers are ergonomically shaped using DirectLink™ technology, and the ball bearings at the lever pivot point ensure precise, smooth modulation. The optimisation of the SRAM Levels goes so far that the fingers do not tire so quickly even with longer loads.
