The SRAM Maven has changed the expectation of how much power you can get out of a bicycle brake. They’ve clearly set a high bar for performance, but some users have lodged complaints about the feel of the lever – it varies brake to brake, but some copies have a fair bit of resistance through the pull when compared to other top-end options.
In order to address these complaints and still try to offer the max power you can access in the Maven, SRAM revised a few key points on the levers and calipers. Most of the changes are out of sight, but they make for a significant change to the feel of the Mavens, both in the stand and on the trail.
Fans of the A1 brakes need not fret; the original Mavens will still be available. The B1 brakes are being introduced as an additional option, with each component available individually to allow for aftermarket tuning.
