DH hydraulic disc brakes Trickstuff Maxima Goodridge Silver

Maxima is an advanced hydraulic brake designed for the most demanding downhill riders who expect maximum braking power combined with perfect control. Engineered for extreme trails, it ensures full precision even on the steepest and most technical sections, where reliability and precise lever feel are essential.

Features:

• Massive braking power – the result of an efficient hydraulic ratio from a 9 mm master cylinder piston to four 16/17 mm caliper pistons.

• High mechanical lever ratio – minimizes the force required for braking, even on very steep descents.

• Precise modulation – smooth operation ensures a predictable bite point and full control over braking force.

• Stable and consistent performance – maintains control even in the most demanding terrain conditions.

• CNC-machined 7075 aluminum calipers – high stiffness and durability.

• Steel bridge bolts – additional stability and resistance to heavy loads.

• Goodridge hoses – increased system stiffness and improved precision.

• High system stiffness – reduces energy loss and enhances braking efficiency.

• Full power control – perfect balance between braking force and feel.

Maxima – Goodridge / steel hose version is a configuration designed for maximum stiffness and uncompromising brake system performance. The steel hose provides even better feel and resistance to expansion under load.

•  Heat Resistance – consistent braking performance even during long and demanding descents. Optimized calipers, pads, and rotors effectively absorb and dissipate heat, while the use of hollow stainless steel pistons further supports temperature management of the entire system.
• Modulation – precise control of braking force thanks to a combination of advanced solutions: an ergonomic and adjustable lever, high-quality brake fluid, very tight manufacturing tolerances, and minimized friction. Modulation is crucial for maintaining control in critical situations – it helps prevent wheel lock-up and shortens braking distance through optimal force distribution.
• Modulation is influenced by many factors, such as pad and rotor quality, proper system bleeding, and friction in moving components. The brakes utilize advanced design solutions that reduce seal and piston friction, resulting in smooth operation and maximum control.
• Ball Bearing Brake Levers – the master cylinders are equipped with four ball bearings (two at the main pivot point and two in the linkage), ensuring low and consistent friction throughout the lever’s range of motion. The elimination of radial and axial play (thanks to a POM component) guarantees precise and repeatable braking characteristics.
• Braking Power – high efficiency resulting from optimal hydraulic and mechanical ratios combined with a very stiff overall construction. Minimal energy loss translates into maximum performance even in extreme conditions.
• Defined Pressure Point – a consistent and predictable moment of pad-to-rotor contact, enabling full control over braking force and reliable performance in any situation.
• High-pressure hoses – available variants: Kevlar (up to 630 bar) and steel-braided Goodridge (up to 1350 bar), ensuring high system stiffness and resistance to expansion under pressure.
• Bionol fluid – characterized by low viscosity and a very high boiling point (360–420°C), ensuring stable system performance even under extreme thermal loads.
• Threaded connections – durable and reusable, eliminating the need for olives and specialized tools, making servicing easier.
• Anodized 7075 Aluminum Construction – calipers and master cylinders made from high-strength CNC-machined aluminum. The anodizing process increases surface hardness, scratch and corrosion resistance, and improves the sliding properties of internal components.
• Pressure-resistant POM Pump Pistons – made from pressure-resistant material with excellent sliding properties and high wear resistance. They ensure smooth mechanism operation and maintain consistent performance over long-term use.
• Ergonomic Brake Levers – designed for comfort and safety. The optimized shape provides secure finger support, while reach adjustment allows customization to individual rider preferences.
