Brake Break Hydraulic Disconnect

With the proliferation of disc brakes on road and gravel bikes, riders looking for a bike with couplers have faced a set of less than ideal options when splitting the frame: either limiting brake options to cable discs with a cable quick disconnect, or if building with hydraulic discs then running the brake hose externally and removing the rear caliper and the cable guides for travel. We are still surprised that the big component players in the industry had no readily available solution to de-couple a hydraulic bicycle brake line.

Our clever Brake Break finally solves these problems for bikes with hydraulic discs. Borrowing its construction from motorcycle motorsports brake hose quick-disconnects, the Brake Break allows instant, tools-free connecting and disconnecting of the bike’s hydraulic brake hose. The design allows for a perfect seal when disconnecting and no rebleeding of the brakes is required even after multiple uses. Sized to easily pass through our frame couplers, the Brake Break removes the compromises formerly involved with couplers and disc brakes.

COMPATIBILITY: The Shimano-compatible Brake Break is intended for use with Shimano BH-90 hydraulic hoses only. The Brake Break is not compatible with Shimano BH-59 hoses, Campagnolo, Magura, or any other style of hose as the fittings of those hoses differ in diameter from the Shimano BH-90.

The SRAM-compatible Brake Break is intended for use with SRAM DOT road brake hoses only.

We cannot guarantee compatibility with any brake hose beyond those specifically included above.
