Low Tech Race x2 - Non-removable brakes for the current LTR 105 and 115 bindings. Does not work with earlier LTR / PDG bindings.
Hi! Im looking for a Radical 2.0 ST 105mm brake and Dynafit sent me to you guys but looks like you dont have it (or not in stock). Could you please let me know if you will have it and when? Its for a Meteorite 97.
Hi Bruno, it looks like those are going to be a few weeks out unfortunately. Something about a boat and the Atlantic.

Hello! Need to replace a lost ski brake. Looks to be the Vertical ST. Just not sure what size I need. The ski itself are Black Diamond Havocs, with measurements of 183-88-118, length of 175 if that helps.
Hi Jeff, you want the Vertical 92mm brakes for those.

Hi! I have the Fischer (Dynafit) Classic on a 100mm waisted ski. Would one of the Dynafit brakes above work? Looks like the Radical 2.0 is pretty close? Thanks!
Hi Aaron, yes the Radical 2.0 105mm brakes would work great.

I've a broken brake on a Dynafit Radical FT. I'm changing to Nordica Enforcer 100mm ski and remounting. Is it OK to put the Radical FT 110 on that ski ? I don't see a Radical FT 100. Thanks
Hi Doug, yes only 110s are available for that binding, and they would work fine on a 100 waisted ski.

I need a replacement brake for a set of Dynafit - TLT RADICAL FT 2-BLACK - 120mm. Do you have this part available? The spring in the brake that connects to the heel piece on mine is bent and needs to be replaced.
Hi Craig, yes it is listed in the drop list as Radical 2.0 120mm.

I see another in another answer that the brake swap on the Radical St 2.0 is pretty straightforward. Can I do this at home with normal tools? Or are special tools required? I can't seem to find anything on the web that shows how to do this.
Hi Joe, no special tools required to move the housing from one baseplate to another, you can do it with a coin. Of course you will need to remount the new baseplate on your skis.

Hi
I know this question seems to have been answered but I want to make triple sure before ordering - I have the radical 2.0 ST and need a wider brake (at least 115mm).
Will the radical 2.0 brake listed here fit the radical 2.0 ST and will a dynafit dealer with the right jig be able to replace my old brake (90mm) with the new brake and mount the bindings on my 115mm underfoot skis?
Yeah, 1.5mm on each side should work. You may have to bend the arms a little bit, especially if your ski has a sloping sidewall, but I think it'll work just fine.
Hi Tyson, I just threw those on the ski for you, plenty of room.

Hi, i have a k2 sidestash 108 mm in the center, with a binding dynafit vertical st. I wanted to know if the dynafit vertical st brakes 100 mm fit on it...wideninig it a little.... thanks a lot, bye
I'd say probably not, an extra 4mm on each side is pushing it a bit too far for my comfort. You risk the brakes not being able to deploy fully, quickly, or consistently, even if you were to bend them out.

Are the Dynafit Radical FT and Radical ST brakes compatible/interchangeable?
I went ahead and purchased the brakes to go with my Dynafit Superlight 2.0 bindings despite the fact that I really prefer a leash for backcountry skiing. My thought was that for resort days cruising with my son, I would be able to easily slap on the brake and not have to go on-and-off with the leash.
The brakes came in both at 80g - 5g under their claimed weight - which was nice. The finish quality of the brakes looks great and installing them is a piece of cake. Unfortunately, taking them off requires tools - you need to depress the pins on the sides of the bindings all the way down past the inside face of the frame that attaches the brakes to the bindings - so a couple screwdrivers or allen wrenches or any other device to push the pins in all the way past the brake mounting frame is required. This seems like a bit of an oversight to me - with a nice round chamfer on the ends of the pins you would be able depress them far enough with your fingers to get the brake off without tools - but maybe Dynafit has a reason for making them this way that just isn't apparent to me.
Stepping in to the bindings is basically just as easy (or hard depending on what you think of the Superlight 2.0's step in force) as without the brakes. If you've ever used the Radical ST or FT, the principle to get the brake out of the way in tour mode is the same, just hold the heel pad down the to the ski with your hand and twist the rear portion of the binding so that the pins point toward the back of the ski and the brake is secured up.
The reason I give these brakes 4 stars rather than 5 is that on numerous occasions the brakes have not deployed when I have stepped out of my skis - while I haven't crashed and had a ski just slide away down the mountain, that's what makes me nervous about these brakes.
When you step into the binding the heel pad pivots the brake arms up and then as they come to the top of the upswing, they pinch inward. That inward pinch and the resistance of the steel brake arms running through the pivot hole in the steel frame is what prevents the brakes from deploying properly when I come out of the bindings. I've tried a couple different lubricants (PTFE and a waterproof grease), but haven't noticed a significant difference in how often the brakes end up sticking. Also, the more snow that accumulates under your boot and in the brake, the more likely it seems that the brake will catch. Hopefully this is something that will 'run in' and over time the issue will go away.
And, for what it's worth, for backcountry skiing these brakes have done nothing to change my opinion that a leash is the best choice.

Hi, I need new brakes for my Radical STs. Problem is I don't know what size I currently have.
If I measure between the brake arms at the inside of the bends (their narrowest point) I get about 100mm.
If I measure between the plastic stoppers on the ends of the brakes, again on the inside, I get about 110mm.
Hi Owen, the brakes are a somewhat oversized but 7mm might be pushing it, it would depend on your boot size and mounting location whether you need to bend it. The 105 would be a safer bet.

Amy
Hi!
My skis are 115mm underfoot and have a Radical ST binding. When you say that there is a little wiggle room with width, do you think the 110mm brakes will fit or should I get the 130mm?
HI Amy, you'll be cutting it close and may have to bend the brakes a bit to get them on. That can compromise stopping power, but would prevent any brake overhang. I think the 130s would be a safer bet.
