The solution for a weak grip

Hybrid
The perfect companion brake
Cycling requires a lot of attention to your surroundings. Children learning to cycle, or people with reduced cognitive function, often have challenges reading traffic.
SmartBrake HYBRID is designed for those who can use a traditional brake lever but need an attendant-controlled brake.
A wireless control allows a companion to activate the brake remotely. The solution is designed to support independent participation in cycling.
Wireless
The solution for a weak grip
Developed for cyclists who need a soft brake handle with minimal resistance to be able to brake themselves.
Wireless brakes enable children and adults with cognitive or physical disabilities to brake independently or be assisted during the activity.
Switch
The brake is activated when the control is released.
SmartBrake SWITCH is a braking solution that activates the brake when the brake lever is released. This can help provide increased control and predictability in situations where the cyclist wants the bicycle to stop automatically if the lever is released.
The solution may be an alternative for cyclists who prefer a different way of operating the brake and who are looking for increased confidence and independence while cycling.
