Cycle Show 2011 – USE Unveil Prototype Disc Brake Converter

Written by | Thursday, 19 May 6822

Road Bike Handlebar Image

At the moment that means using a cable to hydraulic converter we've already seen production prototypes from the likes of Hope and TRP, now USE have entered the fray with a very elegant looking set up. Unlike the TRP and Hope converters which place... That's not to say that the USE system is all about aesthetics, and if it works let's not underestimate the appeal of removing unsightly clutter from around your handlebar especiallly on a cyclocross bike that's got to cope with mud, branches,... The UCI's decision to allow disc brakes on cross bikes has seen a flurry of developments from manufacturers keen to bring the full benefits of hyrdraulic disc brakes to cross&hellip. On the other hand a braking system is the last bit of our bike you'd want to be judging purely on its looks.
