Mountain Bike Brake Test - Temperature Testing. How Hot is Hot?

In this video we test three popular brakes and share results from lots of days testing them on some of the steepest descents we could find. Our goal was to see just how hot brakes get during a long downhill and how big of a difference there is between brands.

TRP DHR Evo brakes with thick 203mm x 2.3mm thick rotors
Shimano XT brakes with 203mm IceTech Freezah rotors
SRAM Code RSC brakes with 200mm rotors

While we were hoping to see some major differences in temperatures, the field was a bit closer than we thought, however the power, lever feel and consistency were the biggest notable differences.

If you ever wanted to know how how your brakes get, give this video a watch. It was a bit more challenging than expected, took us several tries and locations to make, but we're happy with what we learned, even if it was different than what we set out to originally test.
