    Frankenbrakes and brake improvement discussion

    Sorry, didn't mean formula. Those Braking Incas system ones. Aussie distributor knew nothing of them, and can't find pricing anywhere. Their social accounts aren't the most helpful either. Puts me off abit already. https://www.bicycle.braking.com/complete-systems/
