In 2016, TRP began working with reigning world cup champion, Aaron Gwin, to redesign our DH-R EVO brakes. Out of the gate, he was impressed with the initial level of performance, but he did have a list of improvements needed to achieve world cup-winning performance. Working closely with the TRP development team, improvements were made in nearly every part of the brake and tested on the world cup circuit throughout the season. We took most of the changes made to the DH-R EVO brakes and put them into the Slate T4. This brake features the same ergonomic lever made from cast aluminum and a forged/CNC'd caliper, both of which were given a matte black finish. It also features a new and stiffer 5.0mm hose for easier internal routing and better transfer of hydraulic power. Riders will also find benefits in the four-piston caliper, tool-free reach adjust, and top-loading caliper. NEW CNC ADAPTERS - CNC machined - Increased stiffness and clean fit - Simple information marking NEW BRAKE PADS - New performance resin compound - Increased thermal stability - Shorter bed-in process NEW MINERAL OIL - Lower viscosity for better fluid flow - Increased heat stability up to 230 oC - Easier to bleed ERGONOMIC LEVER BLADES - Lightweight aluminum body - Ergonomic single finger positioning - Dimpled accents for better grip on the trail NEW 5MM HYDRAULIC HOSE - Increased stiffness for better hydraulic pressure - Increased thermal stability - Easier to work with for internal frame routing

TRP's new one-piece six-bolt disc rotor in 2.3mm thickness, coming in all sizes of 223 mm, 220 mm, 203 mm, and 180 mm. **For DH-R, DH-R EVO, Trail EVO and E-MTB Only** .

TRP’s new slotted rotor is designed for the most demanding riders in the most demanding conditions. Six recessed slots create channels to allow water, mud, and other debris trapped between the pad and rotor to escape during braking. When debris gets trapped between the pad and rotor braking power is dramatically reduced, these recessed slots maintain a more consistent brake feeling in mixed conditions. Upgrade the stopping power and heat dissipation by increasing the size of your rotor giving you more surface area and leverage. - Sizes: 140mm, 160mm, 180mm, and 203mm - Six slots to remove water, mud, and debris - Single piece design for weight savings - Weight: 117g (160mm)

- Replacement hydraulic tubing with fittings

Can be used to provide extra clearance between brake caliper and spokes. Spacer should be placed between rotor and hub.
