About this product
The Power Silver Caliper/U-Brake is a single U-brake component designed for both front and rear installation on adult bikes. Made from 'chomly' material, it boasts a silver finish. This brake measures 3 1/4 inches in length and height, with a width of 3 1/2 inches, weighing in at 6.6oz. It is presented as a brake set, suitable for general adult bicycle maintenance or upgrades.
Our take
This silver U-brake from Power is an interesting option, particularly because it's listed for 'adult bikes' and can be used on both front and rear positions. The 'chomly' material isn't explicitly defined, but the 6.6oz weight is quite light, which is always a bonus for any bike component. While U-brakes are generally associated with BMX or older styles, its application for adult bikes suggests a specific use case. It comes as a set, which is convenient. Just be mindful of the brake type if you're upgrading, as U-brakes offer a distinct feel compared to V-brakes or discs.
