Brakes

Racer

The Racer brake is a centerpull caliper brake with long reach arms and plenty of clearance. Two versions work with either brazed on pivots or the more traditional centermount. The long reaching arms work great for fitting 700c wheels to a 27" frame, or 650b wheels on a 700c frame.

Racer Medium

The Racer Medium is a leaner, meaner, medium reach version of the Racer brake. Its short and stiff arms give it fantastic stopping power and modulation. The Racer Medium is offered in both a center mount and a braze on configuration, and as a medium (or "standard") reach brake has a range of 47 to 57mm.

Neo-Retro

A modern twist on a classic design. The Neo-Retro is a high profile cantilever brake based on the famously powerful Mafac Tandem brake. Our sealed pivots and modern adjustable brake pads prove that some things only get better with time.

Touring Canti

Looking for long-armed power of the Neo-Retro but want something low profile? The Touring Canti brings the brake arms in toward the wheel, offering much more clearance without sacrificing too much power.

Motolite

The Motolite is our flagship linear-pull brake. It offers plenty of power, easily adjusted brake pad collars, and a quick release that makes wheel changes a breeze.

Moto BMX

The Moto BMX brake has all of the power of the Motolite, but allows for more adjustment of brake pad's vertical reach. Originally designed for 20" wheels, we've found the Moto BMX also works great with 700c wheels on frames designed for 26".

Brake Accessories

Funky Monkey Front

The Funky Monkey Front is a cable hanger that mounts to the steerer tube and works with centerpull and cantilever brakes.

Funky Monkey Rear

The Funky Monkey Rear mounts to the seatpost or seat tube and provides a cable stop for rear centerpull and cantilever brakes.

Moon Unit

A throwback to our early days, the Moon Unit is one of the first PAUL parts, and the fanciest straddle cable holder you can get.

Brake Booster

The Brake Booster stiffens brakes and reduces the flexing of a frame's brake bosses. Designed for cyclocross, the Brake Booster will fit tires up to 47mm wide.

Rack Adapter

These steel Rack Adapters allows you to attach a brake post mounting rack to any of our our brakes, without sacrificing any of our pivot's adjustablity.
