Red brake calipers take their inspiration from the "skeletonized" dual-pivot design of Force. SRAM does extensive machining to Red to make them over 10% lighter than Dura-Ace, and to save you an added 10g in comparison to Force. They're ungodly light by production standards, with two nice upsides-(1) Their lightness doesn't cause them to flex in the least. Your braking power will be stout. (2) They're easy to set up, and they offer plenty of adjustability -both in terms of spring tension and the ease with which you can center them
- Brake pad compound provides superior performance in wet conditions - Radiused brakeshoe washers allow easy adjustment of toe-in and rim contact angle - Indexed quick release k
