The Fly brake now comes more colour options for 2010. The design of the brake arms is totally unique – each arm is made from forged 6061-T6, which is then 3D CNC machined to create the special angled arm design which has a very high level of stiffness. The arms are angled on the direction of the cable to increase the braking power and run smooth. The brake has reinforcements to prevent flex, the springs are cut and the spring plates are as low as possible with 6mm cone allen bolts. When you see this brake, you will appreciate why it takes over 6 hours to make each one.

Fly Brake Hanger @ $22
The new Flybikes cable hanger system avoids the flex involved on the regular hangers with two straight cables instead of a bent cable that always flex when you pull your brake. One of the cables have a fix length and the other uses a knarp for small length adjustments. These length adjustments are sometimes necessary depending on the wheel and brakes being on the right alignment.
