MAXIMA

Plenty of passion for detail goes into crafting our brakes. The heart of our small company has always been production. Every brake is assembled by hand in our workshop, and carefully checked before shipped to its new owner.

Rides of Trickstuff #21: Sam Mehlin and his Pivot Firebird. Sam is our Test Engineer and as crazy and wild as the prototypes he tests. Always ready with a silly comment, whether he's talking bike components or how many laps he's done on his Pivot Firebird. Speaking of which, it’s a custom build he did himself, rocking a singlespeed setup and a mullet wheelset. When it comes to riding, Sam’s style is as unique as his look, always standing out, on and off the trail.

Rides of Trickstuff #18: Colin Saemisch and his 2023 Mondraker Summum. Meet Colin, our savvy buyer with a passion for downhill riding! When he's not tearing up the trails in the bike park, he's on his custom-made 2023 Mondraker Summum, perfectly tailored to his style and needs. Colin is keen on milling and welding his own components, eg the stem-spacers, the end caps for the rear hub or a boost-adapter made of old discs for the front hub. His custom-made parts are made according to the motto that it needs to work and doesn't have to look super pretty.

MAXIMA Black packed up and ready to be yours!

Wondering which hose to choose with the MAXIMA Black? The brake comes in both variants: Goodridge steel braided hose or Kevlar hose. The choice usually depends on the routing of the hose on your bike. With its 6mm diameter, the steel braided hose doesn't fit through every frame with internal routing. So, don't eyeball it, measure it first 🤓! The suitable alternative is installing a Kevlar hose.

Let’s delve into the features of the MAXIMA Black pump 👀 The MAXIMA is known to maintain control even in the most challenging terrain. Its outstanding modulation is achieved by ball-bearing brake levers, characterized by minimal friction and consistent performance throughout the entire lever rotation, eliminating any play. Pressure-resistant POM pump pistons offer exceptional wear resistance and smooth sliding properties. This ensures effortless movement within the anodized piston track, guaranteeing flawless operation of the brake mechanism.
