About this product
This is a Sram Red E1 Aero Hydraulic Disc Brake for the rear wheel, featuring a flat mount design. Constructed from carbon, this black brake is specifically engineered for road bikes, making it suitable for triathlon and time trial applications where aerodynamics and precise braking are crucial. It's a single unit (rear brake only) and an advanced hydraulic disc system.
Our take
For the serious road cyclist, particularly those focused on triathlon or time trials, the Sram Red E1 Aero Hydraulic Disc Brake offers high-end performance. Being a carbon component, it's inherently lightweight, which is a big plus for competitive riding. The flat mount design integrates cleanly with modern frames, and as a hydraulic disc, you can expect superior modulation and stopping power compared to rim brakes. Keep in mind this is only for the rear wheel, so you'll need to source a front brake separately. The premium material and hydraulic system justify the higher price tag for dedicated athletes.
