Velo Orange Grand Cru Long Reach Brakeset Black
$350.00
The Grand Cru Long Reach (47-57mm) caliper brakes are super stiff, probably the stiffest long reach brakes ever made. In testing, we found these to outperform every other long reach brake and many short reach racing brakes that cost significantly more. The smooth, dual-pivot design offers superb modulation and power – very important on a steep mountain descent. There is even clearance for 45mm fenders!
These are made in a small shop in Taiwan run by a former bike racer and engineer. The brake’s finish is anodized and highly polished, so they’ll look great for years to come. The included brake shoes come with high quality pads and take standard Shimano-type replacements.
Wrench and a carbon fork mounting nut are included. 355gms per pair including shoes, pads, and nuts.
Sold as a set, front and rear. Available in Polished Silver and Noir.

Rich (verified owner) –
Ok so these don’t work in the same application as eeBrakes, but that doesn’t change the fact that they perform better! Amazing brakes – I was blown away when I first used them, having tried *lots* of other brakes over the years. For reference, I’m running Dura-Ace C24 carbon tubular wheels with Fulcrum/Campagnolo red carbon brake pads.
Perfect for my Hampsten SB Ti – 40mm fenders/mudguards fir easily underneath; and I can even still run 30mm tyres (35mm without the fenders).
