SRAM HS2 Disc Brake Rotor

Most standard rotors are 1.8mm thick. The extra 0.2mm on the HS2 increases structural rigidity and heat capacity, which translates to more consistent braking power and less warping during long, aggressive descents.

Yes. The HS2 is designed to be compatible with all brake pad compounds, including both organic and metallic options, so you don't need to change your current setup.

That is a specialized thermal dissipating paint. It is engineered to help the rotor shed heat more efficiently, which prevents brake fade and maintains consistent stopping power when you are on the brakes for extended periods.

No, this specific model is designed for Centerlock hubs only. If you have a 6-bolt wheelset, you would need to look for the 6-bolt version of the HS2 rotor.

No, the rotor comes with the necessary Centerlock lockring included in the box, so you are ready to install it right away.

You likely will. The HS2 offers a 7% increase in stopping power compared to SRAM's standard Centerline rotors, primarily due to the increased thickness and improved heat management.
