Product Story

If you’re designing a bike frame that uses rim-brakes, you may as well lock it into the best rim brakes in the world! These classy canti brake bosses allow you to forego the stainless steel pivots that all of our rim brakes use, allowing the brake arms to pivot directly on the boss itself for an extra clean, super simple aesthetic.

These are sold as a Pair (“One wheel worth”)

Brass bike parts… they’re heavier and cost more… b Brass bike parts… they’re heavier and cost more… but there’s something about ✨THAT PATINA✨. We know, these aren’t for everyone. But some people like a little pop of brass on a bike. You can polish it to shine like jewelry, or let it oxidize, for that vintage steampunk vibe. We’ve just added brass options to our Bar End Plugs and Stem Topcaps, and have already been offering it in Spring Adjusters and Baby Groovy Barrel Adjusters for a while now. Machined right here in Chico California by a bunch of bike nerds, just like everything else we make. ✌️
