SRAM Guide RSC
Jury Verdict
The Guide RSC brakes are evolution and revolution all in one: SRAM continues to use the existing Avid X.0 Trail caliper, but has completely re-engineered the brake lever – and with great success! The Guide impresses with solid, constant power, good reliability, and a pleasantly defined bite point which allows for great modulation of the available power.
The jury agreed wholeheartedly with SRAM’s declared aim of building the best and most reliable brake, not just the lightest. These properties reward us with fun on the trails and are much more important than saving the last few grams. But it’s still great that the Guide has ended up pleasantly light.
