Formula introduces Kashima-coated Cura brake sets for improved matching across bikes. The Kashima treatment is applied to both the caliper and master cylinder on the Cura 4-piston brakes, applied exclusively by the Miyaki Company in Japan. The coating on the master cylinder piston is claimed to provide a smoother brake feel. Core specifications remain the same, including four 18mm thermoplastic pistons, low roll-back seals, a two-piece lever with a feeling control system, tool-free reach adjustment, and sintered pads with organic pads included. The brakes are priced at €310 per brake, with adapters and rotors sold separately. Formula also offers Japanese Gold anodized two-piece rotors and an Avinox compatible eMTB rotor with an integrated speed sensor ring.
"Available on the Cura 4-piston brakes, both the caliper and master cylinder get the Kashima treatment, applied exclusively by the Miyaki Company in Japan. It's not just a cosmetic option, though, they say the coating on the master cylinder's piston gives the brakes a smoother feel."
"The technical and performance features carry over unchanged from the standard finishes: Four 18mm thermoplastic pistons; Low roll-back seals; Two-piece lever with feeling control system; Tool-free reach adjustment; Sintered pads fitted; organic pads included in the box; Weight: 400 gr (85 cm hose, 160 mm 1-piece rotor and mounting hardware); RRP: €310 per brake (adapters and rotors sold separately)."
"They pair nicely with Formula's new Japanese Gold anodized two-piece rotors (160/180/203mm options, €70/76/86 respectively), and are compatible with all of their monolithic rotors and two-piece rotors."
"Got one of the new Avinox equipped eMTBs? Formula has a compatible brake rotor for them, with the speed sensor ring integrated into the rotor for a cleaner, lighter setup. It's available in a 200mm diameter with 2.3mm thickness, 6-bolt only. MSRP €80, available in September."
