Details
Three years of development and Paul think they nailed it, 100% designed, tested and manufactured in house
Settling on the tried and true ball bearing in a ramp system, Paul refined some details; using bigger balls for smoothness and increased pad travel and hardened steel for where the balls contact the ramps. Then instead of a plastic thrust washer, they used a flat needle roller thrust bearing.
These brakes are perfect for long mileage deep wilderness bike touring where field serviceability with nothing but a good multitool is crucial to getting back to civilization alive. They’re also great on cyclocross race bikes where tool free independent pad adjustment and a simple cable barrel adjuster means you can fine-tune brake feel specific to course and conditions.
Specifications:
- 6061 Aluminium
- Heat treated steel
- Short pull
- Kool-Stop disc brake pads included (Uses Avid Elixir style brake pads).
- Weight: 211g
Useful note:
When installing new mechanical disk brakes, or mechanically actuated hydraulic disk brakes- we always recommend using non compression outer cables- such as Jagwire KEB-SL outer cable, as well as a new high quality inner cable. Metal cable ferrules are suggested. Also, ensure that when the outer cable is cut- the cut is clean and the internal is not distorted as to snag the inner cable.

I recommend this product
ProsSexy look, flawess design
Having used Shimano, TRP, and Avid mechanical disk brakes- none of them are close to the quality and stopping power of these mighty lumps of Californian aluminum.
Braking power is amazing- easily on par with Shimano Ultegra/ XT grade hydraulic disk brakes!!

Hi there, can I use these calipers with my SRAM Etap levers. My levers are for rim brake bikes (cables). I currently run TRP Sphere mechanical disc calipers with these and seem to work.
Many thanks
