Side pull caliper brake set
This caliper brake set a great bargain! No, it is not real high quality, it is not anywhere near the best made. But if you need just a little more stoping power on your front whel to supplement your coaster brake, it is ideal. Or if you just need to replace a brake and you are a moderate bike rider this will handle it! There was also a extra parts included in order to fit it on a larger front headset. Great price, great shipping. ThanksRead full review

Better than no brake on the front.
I have gotten use to more modern bicycle brakes. The arms and brake pads on this were not true to the wheel. One pad sat flat on the rim while the other touched only on one end of the brake pad. The brake pads were very soft and wore out within a few days and had to be replaced so order those ahead of time. The stopping power added was minimal but better than having nothing on the front of a coaster brake bike. I am not bad mouthing the seller. It was delivered promptly and as advertised. It's just very old technology.Read full review

Affordable and easy to install
I purchased a used 20 in bmx bike last summer for my son's friends to ride when they came over. It took quite a beating and the rear brake was shot. My husband wanted to pitch it because it was unsafe to ride and didn't think it was fixable. I did so I set out to find the parts for a reasonable price. This was the most affordable brake kit that I found and came with all of the parts. I've never worked on a bike in my life and was really happy with how easy it was to install. I took me about 30 minutes to take the old one off and put the new one on. Read full review

Perfect for my daughters 16" Princess bike!
Everything you'll need to add additional braking power for your kids bikes that only came with coaster brakes! Good quality and affordable! I just wished it also comes in white!

Price is the best feature
This brake is decently constructed, but pulls way too hard. The brake slows the bike down, but not quickly by any means. Too hard for a child to pull, and not much adjustment. The parts seem ok individually (at least, sturdy) but the overall performance is poor.Read full review

Not sure
Them seem to work ok I just don't think I ordered the right one for my bike. I'm kinda new at buying parts for a bicycle. They seem to be too short down the side of the tire.

Nice package deal
Everything is of good quality. Not a big fan of chrome so the levers weren’t my thing. Chrome gets hot quick. Not what you want on levers. Otherwise the whole package was great for the price.Read full review
