Shimano SM-RT70 SLX Centrelock Disc Brake Rotor (180mm)

SLX - CENTER LOCK - Disc Brake Rotor - ICE TECHNOLOGIES - 203/180/160/140 mm

SLX disc brake rotors deliver powerful and consistent brake performance for all riding conditions. The ICE TECHNOLOGIES FREEZA rotor significantly reduces heat build-up in the brake system to ensure consistent high performance braking even on the steepest downhill stretches. SHIMANO's CENTER LOCK mounting system makes installing and removing rotors quick and easy thanks to the spine mount and lock ring design.

The Shimano SM-RT70 is a center lock brake rotor with Ice-Tech technology. This means that the sandwich composite consists of two stainless steel layers with an internal aluminium layer. This ensures excellent heat dissipation even on long descents and difficult trails. The SM-RT70 rotor is recommended for newer SLX brakes, but is also compatible with other models.
