  "description": "First released two years ago, SRAM is now updating its gravity-oriented Maven mountain bike brakes. Keeping an emphasis on high power, the new Maven B1s retain the four-piston calipers, but those pistons are an equal 18 mm diameter.\n\nThe other big change comes in the power curve at the lever. The original Maven A1s had an overly progressive power curve, while the new update aims to give the brakes smoother and lower effort power control. This improvement comes through a new lever, the SwingLink,",

The original Maven A1s had an overly progressive power curve, while the new update aims to give the brakes smoother and lower effort power control. This improvement comes through a new lever, the SwingLink, which can be retrofitted to the original Mavens.\n\nAs before, the mineral-oil-based Mavens are available in multiple price points. There are no updates to the cheapest ‘Base’ model, which does not feature the new progressive SwingLink.\n\nTech news like this isn’t Escape’s usual beat, but such things often trickle over to other cycling segments.",
