Overview

The Piccola Carbon strips every possible gram without compromising on feel or power. Carbon finger levers, titanium yoke bolts, and a weight-optimized caliper bring the system down to just 160g per brake — an almost cheeky combination of radically low weight and genuine stopping power. A 9mm pump piston transmits oil to two 22mm stainless steel pistons via linear power transmission, resulting in consistent, predictable braking force that remains faithful even at heart rates pushing 200. A benchmark choice for XC and marathon riders who refuse to give up control.
