Use a cable disc brake caliper....and copper sintered pads ❤😊😊😊

SRAM Guides, dont need a lathe for them to fade.

Brakes: glowing red hot
Lathe gearbox and spindle bearings: not even 1°C above workshop temperature

I think I did that to my brakes mountain biking down the La Sal mountains in Moab Utah.

You should try this again with a mechanical disk break

[danb]

bleed the brakes and use engine oil for the fluid....or use a cable caliper with copper pads...bet itll be a good show to watch

Now touch it😊! I've seen semi truck breaks do this going down hill with a load on. Nothing quite like seeing breaks smoking and catching on fire.

Not much new here: that's how I drive.

My brother burned his calf on his brake disc at the bottom of a downhill run more than once.

FYI, the Guide series from SRAM is their budget line of trail bike brakes. If you want to test their actual best of the best downhill line, go for the Code RSC.

I'd never trust sram guides on my dh bike. Life is precious.
