TRP Slate EVO

Yes, the Slate EVO is specifically engineered to handle the extra weight and speed of electric mountain bikes. Its four-piston caliper and compatibility with thicker 2.3mm rotors provide the necessary thermal stability and stopping power for heavier, faster setups.

These brakes are optimized for 2.3mm thick rotors, which helps with heat management and stiffness. While they may physically fit thinner standard rotors, you will get the best performance and pad life by pairing them with TRP's 2.3mm rotors.

It is very straightforward. The system features a tool-free reach adjustment, allowing you to quickly dial in the lever position to fit your hand size or preference without needing any tools on the trail.

Maintenance is relatively simple thanks to the top-loading pad design, which lets you swap out worn pads without removing the wheel or caliper. The system uses mineral oil, which is generally easier to work with than DOT fluid when it comes time to bleed the brakes.

No, the rotors are sold separately. You will need to purchase 2.3mm thick rotors separately to get the full performance benefits of this brake system.
