In downhill every hundredth of a second counts so the last thing you want is rubbing brakes, which is why Aaron Gwin’s mechanic John Hall loves this Birzman brake tool so much. You simply slot it in-between the pads and the rotor when setting up your brakes, tighten the bolts, and hey presto you’ve got a perfectly aligned calliper. Even if you aren’t worried about fractions of a second I am sure just the noise of a rubbing rotor pisses you off, so maybe you should add one of these to your toolbox.
