About Sram HS2 Center lock 160mm Rounded Disc Brake Rotor

Description

The HS2 brake discs were specially developed for the requirements in the MTB sector. Compared to the previous versions, both the braking performance and the heat dissipation could be improved. In addition, the HS2 discs tend to be less noisy. These properties were achieved through a new profile that improves the traction of the brake pads.

The improved heat management is achieved via 6 recessed spokes with a special heat-dissipating coating. In addition, the thickness of the friction ring has been increased from 1.8 mm to 2.0 mm compared to the SRAM Centerline discs. Thanks to these optimizations, the braking performance could be increased by 7% and in the Garda test, the window temperature could be reduced by 40 degrees.

Rounded edges on the top of the lens minimize the risk of injury and comply with the guidelines of the UCI World Cycling Association. Another advantage is that they make it easier to install the wheel because the rounded top prevents it from tilting in the brake caliper. The discs are available with diameters of 160 - 220 millimeters. Thanks to their high stability, the HS2 brake discs are also ideally suited for E-MTB use.

What is the purpose of Disc brake Rotor?

Disc brakes generate an incredible amount of stopping power, usually far more than is necessary to adequately stop a road bicycle. This allows the rider to apply much less force to the lever before the bike comes to a halt. Less hand strength leads to a decrease in muscle fatigue, especially on longer descents.
