Brake Handle

In the development of cycling, apart from pursuing acceleration, deceleration is also crucial. No one is willing to take unnecessary risks when cycling. Therefore, if you want a higher speed, you must be equipped with a matching bicycle brake handle to ensure safety. As the first contact operating component for transmitting braking force, the products manufactured by Hongyu's own factory are highly valued by us. We will be your reliable professional choice.

Type

Depending on the type of vehicle and the usage environment, bicycle brake levers can be classified into different types. It can roughly be divided into three types: disc brakes, V-brakes and C-brakes. Among them, V-brakes are widely used in low-end mountain bikes and urban commuter bicycles due to their simple structure and low maintenance costs. Modern mid-to-high-end mountain bikes usually use disc brakes, especially hydraulic disc brakes.

Material selection

The choice of materials will directly affect the service life performance of bicycle brake levers, and the handlebar is the core component that determines riding safety. Therefore, the choice of handlebar is of vital importance. Carbon fiber handles are usually light and have the function of absorbing kinetic energy, but they are relatively expensive. The handles produced by Hongyu are mainly made of aluminum alloy. Aluminum alloy material has high strength and good corrosion resistance. While ensuring the stability of the product structure, it has achieved a lightweight design, effectively reducing the control difficulty for cyclists and ensuring the durability of the product. However, if customers have diverse demands, we will also produce according to their needs, whether it is material selection, color, surface treatment, etc.

How to adjust to achieve comfort

The position adjustment of a bicycle brake handle can follow certain principles and choose an Angle that is as comfortable as possible for you to hold. If the design point is too far from the handle, it will cause difficulty in holding. If it is too tight, it is easy to cause brake failure and affect the handling performance. You can try adjusting the position according to the first joint of your index finger.
