If you're looking to upgrade your ride's braking game, the Baer 6S Extreme+ rear brake system is a solid choice. This setup features a robust 6-piston caliper that's mounted on a slick 14-inch, 2-piece rotor. The rotor isn't just any rotor; it's drilled, slotted, and zinc plated, which means you're getting both performance and a bit of protection against the elements. One thing I really appreciate about this system is the unique billet backing plate. It serves as a caliper mount but also houses a modern park brake assembly that works way better than those old drum-in-hat systems. Trust me, it's a game changer when you're parked on a hill or just want that extra peace of mind.

Now, let’s talk about the details. The stainless steel brake hoses are a nice touch, ensuring durability and resistance to wear. And the calipers? They come with D.O.T. compliant dust and weather seals, so you can hit the trails or the streets without worrying about dirt and debris messing things up. Plus, the high-grade NAS stainless hardware is used in the pre-assembled rotor, which is always a plus in my book.

The 6S and 6R R-Spec calipers are Baer’s flagship models, crafted from a single piece of US-sourced 2618 forged aluminum. This means they’re not just lightweight but also incredibly strong. Just a heads up, this is a General Fit rear system, so you’ll need to grab separate park brake cables.
