SRAM Revamps Brake Lineup for 2023

We've got some thoughts on the new SRAM Code Ultimate Stealth brakes as well as our overview of SRAM Transmission that you can read here. What follows is the press release straight from SRAM about their revised and simplified brake lineup for 2023.

Hidden in plain sight, SRAM MTB brakes now feature Stealth levers. The all-new lever body design brings the hose closer to the bar, allowing for a sleeker, more modern ride. Available on a simplified line-up with Level and Code, the levers feature aesthetics to pair with those of Eagle Transmission.
