The SRAM Paceline disc brake rotor is designed for road cyclists looking to upgrade their stopping power and system refinement. Inspired by the aesthetics of SRAM's eTap AXS road groupsets, this rotor delivers quiet, smooth performance and enhanced heat dissipation; however, users should note it is specifically engineered for road use and may not be suitable for aggressive mountain bike applications.

This rotor is specifically designed for road use; while it may physically fit, it is not optimized for the high-heat, heavy-duty demands of mountain biking.
No, this is a 6-bolt rotor. It requires a 6-bolt disc brake hub for installation.
You will need a T25 Torx wrench to tighten the six mounting bolts.
Yes, standard hardware for the 6-bolt mounting interface is included.
You should replace the rotor when it reaches the minimum thickness threshold, usually indicated by a wear line on the rotor, or if it becomes significantly warped.
While these are designed for SRAM systems, they are generally compatible with most standard organic or metallic brake pads, though SRAM pads are recommended for best performance.
Clean the rotor surface with isopropyl alcohol and verify that the pads are not contaminated with oil.
Re-check the torque on all six mounting bolts using a T25 wrench; ensure they are tightened to the hub manufacturer's specifications.
Check if the rotor is true (straight). If slightly bent, use a rotor truing tool to gently realign the disc.
Installation requires a T25 Torx wrench to secure the rotor to your hub using the six included bolts. Always follow a star-pattern tightening sequence to ensure even pressure across the mounting surface. It is recommended to use a small amount of thread locker on the bolt threads if they are not pre-applied. Compatibility is limited to 6-bolt disc hubs. For maintenance, clean the rotor periodically with isopropyl alcohol to remove road grime or oil contamination. Avoid touching the braking surface with bare fingers, as natural skin oils can degrade braking performance and cause noise.
