Next-level cycling brakes!

Using this product, our team found that the Shimano Ultegra front brake provides powerful stopping power and gives a huge confidence boost down steep descents. The brake is lightweight yet sturdy and easy to install. The only downside is the price, but it's well worth the investment for serious cycling enthusiasts or professionals. Overall, we highly recommend this brake for its quality and reliability.

Pros
  • Excellent stopping power and modulation
Cons
  • Expensive compared to lower-end brake systems

They brake better: Calipers

Moved to this one from the old Tiagra kit. it's definitely more exciting. It may be the difference between 3 year old pads and new, but there is a noticeable difference in the force required for the same stopping power.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Not everything fits

Excellent brakes, reliable and driven normally. also quite easy.

great brake. he is strong and walks well. also quite easy. I bought two of these brakes (a State Bicycle Company Undefeated II and a custom VanNicholas Titanium bike) and am planning to buy a third for my friend's Unlimtted Edi II SBC. Braking power and response are reliable. The brake is quite light and has a good design. Everything you need (apart from cables and brake levers) is included.Jan W.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
