Maven Base Brake
Modern mountain bikes have redefined what riders are capable of, pushing the requirements for extreme-duty power further than ever before. Maven is the answer to that evolution, delivering boundless power and confidence for elevated speed and control on increasingly demanding terrain.
Maven Base features a DirectLink lever that translates rider input into smooth, consistent braking force. A stiff 4-bolt caliper with four 18mm pistons delivers extreme-duty power and sheds heat efficiently, ensuring that the last corner feels like the first.
With so much baseline power available, Maven offers more range than ever to tune braking feel with different pad materials and rotor sizes. The system uses Maxima Mineral Brake Oil for low-maintenance performance and is finished with a clean Blasted Black anodized look.
The Stealth lever architecture provides a modern cockpit layout, and tool-free reach adjust allows easy customization. The caliper includes a Bleeding Edge™ bleed port for quick, drip-free service.
How Maven Base and Bronze Compare
Maven Base and Maven Bronze are both classified as Extreme Duty brakes, sharing the same high-performance focus. Maven Base uses a caliper with four 18mm pistons, a compression hose fitting, and a DirectLink lever. Compared to Bronze, which uses a SwingLink-equipped lever, Maven Base delivers slightly less progressive power—but maintains a very similar feel during most average braking scenarios. Both models offer reliable stopping power, but Maven Base is tuned for riders who prefer a more direct lever response.
