Brakes

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

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.
