Details
The best mechanical brake caliper money can buy!
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. As for the caliper body - Paul beefed up the body where needed and added “fangs” to the inner backing plate all to increase stiffness.
For easy pad adjustability but staying power, detents were designed into the circumference, located with spring ball plungers. The pads are Kool-Stop sintered metallic. We believe this is the best mechanical caliper ever made for a bicycle.
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.
