Good brakes are not optional equipment. They are the most important safety system on your bike — and the component most riders service least often and think about last.
We stock the full range of brake types at Evercoast — hydraulic disc, mechanical disc, and rim brake calipers for road, gravel, MTB, commuter, and eBike applications. Whether you are building a new bike from scratch, upgrading stock calipers that were never adequate for the job, or replacing worn components on a daily rider, we have the correct brake for your application and the knowledge to spec it properly.
Not sure what you need? The short version: hydraulic disc brakes offer the best modulation and the lowest maintenance overhead for most riders. Mechanical disc brakes are the right choice for touring, commuting, and riders who want a system they can service anywhere with basic tools. Rim brakes are the correct choice for rim brake frames — and for riders who love them, the best rim brake calipers available today are genuinely excellent.
If you are upgrading the brakes on a hub motor eBike, read our eBike brake upgrade guide before you buy — the right caliper depends on your mount standard, rotor size, and what levers you are running.
Every brake we sell can be installed at our workshop at 1737 Fir Street. If you are not sure what fits your bike, bring it in — compatibility varies enough between frames, forks, and lever types that we never recommend a caliper without knowing what it is going on.
