Bedford Downhill Mountain Unicycle Brakes

Bedford Unicycles now have custom Magura HS33 Hydraulic rim brakes
designed for mountain unicycles.

Lots of shops sell Magura brakes...
Only Bedford Unicycles sell custom Magura brakes made for mountain
unicycles.

They come ready to bolt on !

Stock brakes come with:
*Plastic lines,
*Stock black brake pads,
*A brake line long enough for the back of a bike,
*A cross over that dosen't give enough clearance for 3" downhill
tires,

Only Bedford Unicycles sells them the way they should be sold:

*With stainless steel lines,
*The brake line long enough for long legged riders but don't need to be
wrapped around the frame and seat post numerous times,
*The stainless steel cross over totally clears the 3" Gazz Downhill tire
and any mud the tire picks up,
*With premium red brake pads,
These pads grip much better then the stock pads when you need them to
and you can use them as an assist in long desends by adjusting the wheel
on the brake handle

Buying brakes from Bedford Unicycles eliminates the need to spend
additional money and do all the work required to convert them for
unicycle use.
No need to buy and cut the stainless lines, upgrade the brade pads,
change the lines, buy brake fluid and bleed the brakes.

Bedford Unicycles does all the work...
You just bolt them on and ride... The way it should be !!!


Bedford Unicycles also stocks 3" frames with brake mounts. Either post
or double bolt mounts.


Inquire for more info...


Cheers,
Darren

this sounds like a good deal.is it true that the steel line is super
spendy?

will the brake levers come in black or the silver?

Sounds like you got it exactly right. Do you have any pictures? I have
several brakes setup like this (on muni and coker). Here are some
photos for those who are interested. Does it come with the "dually
lever" too? I like the green pads better than the stock black ones.

I went to steel braided when I had the misfortune of damaging my plastic
line hopping on some rocks. I must say that a Magura on a Coker is
great for steep downs, so you can actually keep some momentum.

I don't know what "spendy" is.

I have both black and silver brakes and handles.

Darren, you are the man. Speaking as someone who has done all that
cutting of stainless steel lines and ordering extra to make a tall
enough U to get over the 3" Gazz, I say THANKS! After 2 years of hard
use. my Muni brake is leaky and blown out, so I'm ordering a new one
from you.

I thought the green pads were designed for wet conditions. And that they
collect grit in them really quickly, which wears out your rim...

Have you told 'Unicycle.com'
(http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=520) that they are
doing it all wrong? I think they deserve to know if they are selling
inferior brake hardware. I disagree that you are the only one selling a
cross over that gives enough clearance for 3" downhill tires.
Unicycle.com's brake crossover thingies clear 3" downhill tires, I've
seen them on both the Duro and the Gazzaloddi. With a bit of good
communication, it could be only Bedford, Unicycle.co.nz, Unicycle.com,
Unicycle.uk.com, Unicycle.se, and any other specialised Unicycle shops
who sell custom Magura brakes made for mountain unicycles, the way they
should be sold! They cost a bit more, but it sounds like the extra price
is worth it.
