This is a metallic white U-brake designed for BMX and Kids Bikes, suitable for both front and rear positions. Constructed from steel, it weighs 8oz and measures 5 1/2 inches in length.

It comes as a single unit, model 462, and is presented in a classic white finish, ideal for replacements or new builds on smaller bicycles.
Our take
If you're looking for a straightforward, no-frills U-brake for a BMX or kid's bike, this could be a solid option. The steel construction suggests reasonable durability, and at 8oz, it's not excessively heavy for its purpose. I appreciate that it's designed for both front and rear installation, offering flexibility for your specific needs. However, being a U-brake, it inherently has a different feel compared to more modern braking systems. The metallic white finish is a nice touch if you're going for a specific aesthetic, but remember it's a basic part for basic braking needs.
