Sea Otter 2009: Promax

Stopped by the Promax booth to check out some brakes.

The Hornet: Hydraulic brake usies Dot. 4 fluid. This little Hornet had a little cylinder that helps to improve the modulation of any brake. This piece can be used on any other brake. On the demo booth squeeze test, it did feel really good

The Hornet uses a dual piston caliper

The Q6 is Promax’s top of the line brake. It has easy pad replacements via the top of the caliper, while there is an easy access bleeding hole on the lever piece for quick bleeding via an Avid bleed kit. It definitely has a bit of the Hayes Stroker look to it.
