005.018.101.000
SKU code: PSI-SR005018101000
Sold Out
Purpose-built for the extra speed and mass of an e-MTB, the SRAM Guide RE pairs a powerful four-piston caliper with the easy-to-live-with Guide R lever, giving you confident, consistent stopping power for heavy, fast electric trail bikes. This is the front brake assembly in gloss black.
Highlights
- e-MTB-specific hydraulic disc brake built for higher speeds and heavier bikes
- Four-piston caliper (shared with SRAM Code) for strong, heat-resistant power
- Guide R lever with tool-free reach adjustment
- Steel-backed sintered metal pads for durability under sustained load
- Arrives pre-assembled and pre-bled, ready to mount and connect
Power that suits the extra mass
The Guide RE takes the proven four-piston caliper from SRAM's gravity-focused Code brake and mates it to the lighter-action Guide R lever. The larger caliper and sintered metal pads cope with the higher average speeds and added weight of a motor and battery, shedding heat better than a typical trail brake during long, loaded descents.
Simple, reliable control
The aluminium lever blade offers tool-free reach adjustment so you can dial in lever position to your hand. The system runs on DOT 5.1 fluid and ships pre-bled for a straightforward install.
Compatibility and fit
This is the front brake, supplied with a front-length 850mm hose and a post-mount caliper that suits a wide range of forks (rotor size dependent on adaptor/mount). A rotor is not included and should be selected to suit your wheel and frame. The lever clamp is MatchMaker compatible, so it can share a clamp with SRAM shifters and a RockShox Reverb remote to tidy your cockpit. In a typical Australian setup the right-hand lever operates the front brake.
