About this product
This unbranded front bicycle alloy side-pull caliper brake is designed with a long reach of 78–102mm, making it suitable for bikes requiring extra clearance. It comes as a complete set, including the brake caliper, cables, and a lever. The black finish provides a classic look, and it's compatible with both BMX and universal bike types. Originating from Taiwan, this front brake offers a practical solution for stopping power, especially for older frames or specific bike geometries that need an extended reach caliper.
Our take
This front caliper brake is a decent, no-frills option, especially if you need a long-reach brake. The 78-102mm reach is the standout feature here, which can be critical for certain frames or wheel/tire combinations. It's nice that it comes as a complete set with the brake, cables, and lever, so you have everything you need for installation on the front of your bike. The alloy construction and black finish give it a clean, functional look. While it's unbranded, for under $21, it provides basic stopping power for BMX or other bikes needing that specific long reach, though don't expect premium modulation.
