A practical choice for mountain, gravel and everyday riders upgrading or replacing a 6-bolt rotor who want better heat management during sustained braking.
The SM-RT86 is a 6-bolt disc brake rotor designed for riders who want reliable braking performance without unnecessary weight. Its three-layer stainless steel / aluminium / stainless steel construction uses an aluminium core to help move heat away from the braking surface, supporting more consistent performance on long descents and repeated braking sections.
ICE TECHNOLOGIES helps manage operating temperatures, which can reduce fade, noise and pad wear. The polished rotor blade also uses a mud-shedding design to help maintain more consistent braking in dirty riding conditions, while the alloy lock ring provides a secure installation solution.
This rotor is listed for narrow-pad brake callipers using metal or resin pads. Before ordering, confirm that your calliper is compatible and that the rotor diameter suits your frame, fork and existing adaptor. If you are changing rotor size, the required adaptor and the maximum approved rotor size must also be checked.
ICE TECHNOLOGIES
The cooling-focused design helps maintain more consistent braking performance during sustained braking.
Three-layer rotor blade
A stainless steel / aluminium / stainless steel sandwich structure helps dissipate heat while keeping the rotor lightweight.
Reduced brake fade
Improved heat management helps braking remain more consistent on long descents and repeated braking sections.
Mud-shedding profile
The rotor blade design helps clear mud for more dependable performance in dirty riding conditions.
6-bolt mounting
Designed for hubs using the standard 6-bolt rotor mounting pattern.
Metal or resin pad compatibility
Listed for narrow-pad brake callipers using either metal or resin brake pads; check your specific calliper compatibility before purchase.
Lightweight format
The 160 mm rotor has an average weight of 135 g, without the lock ring.
