I've a pair of Elixir 5's for sale in great condition - less than a year old.
These brakes have never needed a bleed - they've felt solid since the day I bought them and are in perfect working order.
I'll also include a set of 180mm discs in perfect condition and a brand new set of pads for them.
These brakes new are approx â¬130 each, but you can have the pair of them and the extras for â¬130.

Avid Elixir 5 Disc Brake Features :
MatchMaker Compatible - Save weight and clutter on the bar with MatchMaker. This system holds AVID® levers, a number of SRAM triggers and the RockShox PushLoc controlâall with one tidy, light clamp.
Tri-Align⢠Caliper Positioning System⢠- Another original Avid technology making your life betterâthereâs never been an easier brake to install and adjust. With Avidâs Tri-Alignâ¢Caliper Positioning Systemâ¢, aligning the caliper to the rotor literally takes seconds. Just loosen the CPS⢠bolts a little, and then squeeze the brake lever while re-tightening the bolts. Perfect caliper alignmentâjust like that.
Top-loading Pads - When the only thing between you and the trail is bike maintenance, every second matters. With our top-loading pads, new disc-brake pads can be installed without taking off the wheel, working under the caliper or doing any upside-down pad juggling, so youâll be ready to ride much quicker.
TaperBore Technology⢠- The term âTaperBoreâ refers to a unique patent-pending closure system in our Elixir and Code levers. It saves weight, looks super-sleek, improves lever feedback and most importantlyâgives you more power and control.
Reach Adjust - When one finger has the power to control your ride, adjusting the levers to perfectly match your unique hands is seriously importantâthatâs why we put Reach Adjust on all of our levers.
Deep Stroke Modulation⢠- Thereâs a fine line between braking hard and braking so hard that you lose traction. Deep Stroke Modulation allows riders to perfectly navigate that line and control even the most powerful brakes with finesse
