Exile Cycles - Sprocket Brake Kit for Chopper and Custom Motorcycle

The Sprocket Brake Kit offers braking performance equivalent to an after-market two-piston caliper with a 10in rotor,as that is exactly what it is. The pictures demonstrate the positioning of the caliper when installed. Although designed for  use on rigid and Softail applications, some of our customers have used them successfully with traditional swing-arms. We are frequently asked whether oil from the chain causes a problem. Firstly, with modern O-ring chains you cannot  lube the joints as they are sealed. You need simply to keep the side-plates clean. Tsubaki even says you can run them dry! Fly-off from the chain is in an outward direction, so contamination only occurs during lubing, if you are not careful. If it does, wipe it off. Finally, if some oil makes it onto the braking surface it burns off immediately. Our Sprocket Brake Kit uses readily available brake pads and seals.
