Like the name says, the Avid Juicy Ultimate Brake Set is designed to be the ultimate hydraulic disc brake. It is super light, offers superb high-performance braking, and has cool features like a carbon lever blade. There isn't much else you could ask for. The caliper bodies are a forged, one-piece monoblok design and use Avid's Tri-Align caliper positioning system for simple setup.
This brake set does away with the large contact point adjustment knob you've seen on other Juicy brakes ( a weight-saving concession). Instead, you simply use a 2.5mm hex key (which also adjusts rebound on some Rockshox forks). Handy and saves weight and space in your tool kit.

* Claimed 345 grams (Front, post-mount, 160mm)
* 6 bolt rotor fits today's common International Standard hubs
