Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Optimized SRAM Apex Brake Caliper Set by Tim Sterling

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Installed on a GMC Denali Road Bike (Yellow/Black Non-Pro)

I had to make a few modifications to get it working on my bike which no doubt voided the warranty on my bike and brakes but what a a difference in braking performance! I already had my wheels fixed with factory brakes which improved things but the fitment made a huge difference compared to the factory brakes. I had to make two modifications: 1. Drill the bike frame brake mounting holes to fit the larger diameter brake bolts.2. Drill holes where the pads attach to increase reach. When I installed the rear brake on my bike, I had to flip it over to the opposite side of the factory installation to properly access the brake. pads

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • boring packaging
