Tektro Oryx 992A Cantilever Brakes: Precision Stopping Power for Demanding Rides
Conquer diverse terrain with confidence using the Tektro Oryx 992A Cantilever Brakes. Engineered for riders who demand reliable, powerful braking – whether you’re navigating muddy cyclocross courses, embarking on loaded touring adventures, or restoring a classic steel-frame bicycle – these brakes deliver exceptional performance where it counts most.
Experience smoother lever feel and remarkably consistent pad contact thanks to the advanced linear spring mechanism. This translates directly to reduced hand fatigue during long descents and predictable modulation in variable conditions like wet gravel or loose trails. The generously sized 70mm brake pads provide a substantial friction surface area, significantly enhancing overall stopping power and heat dissipation compared to smaller alternatives.
Crafted from lightweight yet robust aluminum, the Oryx 992A offers excellent durability without adding unnecessary weight to your vintage bike build or touring rig. The integrated Z-link wire design optimizes force transfer from the cable to the brake arms, ensuring crisp engagement and precise control when you need it most. Threaded post pad attachment guarantees straightforward installation and hassle-free pad replacement or toe-in adjustments using standard tools.
