GROWTAC Equal Mechanical Disc Brake Caliper (Flat Mount) - Kashima Coat

Special model with Kashima coating for durable surface treatment

GROWTAC / GROWTAC is a Japanese domestic manufacturer that develops and sells bicycle-related products. We develop a variety of products for bicycles.

EQUAL / Equal mechanical disc brakes, which have been attracting a lot of attention recently, have the world's highest class "braking power" and "lightness" as well as the security of maintenance that only a mechanical system can provide.

They are also the best in the world in terms of braking power and lightness, not to mention the peace of mind that only mechanical brakes can provide in terms of maintenance, They can also cope with problems during wheel rides and long rides, It is a next-generation braking system that is easy to use in a variety of situations.

Kashima Coat is a high-performance surface treatment based on hard anodizing, to which molybdenum disulfide, a solid lubricant, is
added to reduce friction and improve wear resistance.
In the field of bicycles, it is known as a treatment with a proven track record in harsh operating environments such as MTB suspensions, which are constantly subjected to repeated sliding and contact.

EQUAL brake calipers use Kashima Coating on the caliper body and piston.
It is scratch-resistant and stain-resistant to maintain a beautiful appearance for a long time.
It also suppresses performance changes during long-term use, maintains a stable braking feeling, and improves
brake feeling.

World's lightest weight class Caliper

To achieve both high rigidity and light weight, high-strength super duralumin was used and almost all parts of the caliper were machined at high precision. The caliper is one of the lightest mechanical disc brake calipers in the world at 136g (including brake pads, flat mounted). The entire braking system, including cables and other components, is comparable to a high-grade hydraulic braking system. Recommended for serious racers and hill climbers who are concerned about weight.

Brake System Total Design

Total design of the brake system including cables and pads. Special hard outer casing with low deformation for high transmission efficiency. Inner cables are slick stainless steel cables from N ISSEN / NISSEN for lightness of pull. Brake pads are jointly developed with Vesrah, using resin-based ceramic semi-metal (EVO RESIN) friction material and aluminum back plates for high braking power and high durability. All the necessary performance for brakes in high quality. All in a set, of course.

Brakes FEELING Adjustment system

The world's first brake feel adjustment system. The brake feel can be adjusted to suit your weight and preference. You can choose to focus on control or increase the initial braking force. In addition, the pad clearance can be adjusted independently on both sides without steps, allowing for fine-tuning for your particular needs.

Optimal brake lines

EQUAL also focuses on the brake line. Optimal brake lines reduce sliding resistance, resulting in lighter braking and improved transmission efficiency. They are also easier to install and look better.
