Fritschi Brakes

Replacement brakes might be necessary if you move your bindings to a ski with a different width. You also might misplace your Vipec brakes since they are easily removable, a handy feature. See below for some various brake options.

Vipec/Tecton Brakes – Also known as Diamir Tech Brakes, these are replacement brakes for the Fritschi Vipec, Vipec EVO, and Tecton bindings. They are available in several widths, starting with 80mm for skinny skis and ending with 120mm for fatties. They are attached with brake plate kits that ship with the bindings or with replacements kits found here. Attachment plate kits are not included, despite the photo showing them.

Question from eric

 

I mounting a pair of FRITSCHI VIPEC EVO 12s on a 95 ski, and i thought the 100 size brake would be right, but (based on on a prior answer) if that brake fits a 108 ski according to Black Diamond, is it too wide for a 95? Thanks

Answer from jbo

 

Hi eric, Fritschi redid their brake sizing last year and the 108 comment no longer applies. I would recommend the 100 for you.

Question from Phil

 

Got my wife zero g blizzards with an 85mm waist. Would the 100mm be right or the 80mm?

Answer from Trace Leches

 

Hey Phil! 80mm might clear, 100mm would likely be too big though. Ideally I'd like to see you on a 90mm brake, though it looks like we don't have that at the moment. Let me know if you'd like me to set you up for an email notification when we get those in!

Question from Alexandra

 

Hi there,

Do you think the 100mm brakes would work on 102mm Faction Agents?

Saw your reply to 103 soul owner's post above, but also read your reply to Fedor which points out that the 100mm brakes can work for up to 108mm (according to BD, at least).

Context: Just bought Tectons w/ 110mm brakes from a friend (new, unused), but am concerned the brakes are too wide.

Thanks in advance--stoked to try the new setup in the Wasatch this winter!

Answer from Nate

 

Hi Alexandra, I think in your case that the 100mm brakes will likely have enough clearance to work.

Question from Matthew

 

Hi!

I'm looking at getting the tecton but can only get them with a 90mm brake do you think it'd be OK bending the brakes to fit a 110mm ski?

Answer from Nate

 

Hi Matthew, that's a big stretch. I doubt you could do it without really compromising the function.

Question from Tim

 

A friend is selling me his Fritche tectron 12 -110 mm bindings un-used. I have Rossignol soul 7s which are about 103mm at the waist. This should mean that the 110mm brakes are right but they seem way too wide - see image attached. Is your 110mm binding 7" wide at the widest point like the one in the photo?

Hi Tim, the arms are held closer together when you install them.

Question from Doug

 

Are the Vipec and Tecton brakes interchangeable? For a ski with 104 mm waist- which size is correct?

12/19/2017

Answer from Trace Leches

 

Hey Doug! Yup, they're the same attachment! I'd go with 110mm brake!

Question from Paul L

 

What size brake would you recommend for a Fischer Hannibal with a 94 waist? I have read the 95 is a very tight 95? Thanks

8/30/2017

Answer from Trace Leches

 

Hey Paul. We just measured the inside of the 95 brake shoulder width (the narrowest point) at 97mm, so if you don't have a sloping sidewall then there's a small chance you'll have to bend it out, but it should clear just fine.

Question from Fedor Farberov

 

Hello,

I’m looking for FRITSCHI VIPEC BRAKES size 100 mm for black VIPEC bindings (model 2015-16).

However brakes on the picture on this page are not for Vipec bindings. These brakes are for different FRITSCHI bindings: Eagle and Freeride. Also specification of the brakes sizes is different compare to what Diamir has on their website. They say that brakes for Vipec bindings have the following sizes: 80 / 90 / 100 / 115 mm. But sizes on your site are 95 and 108 mm. Please clarify what kind of Fritschi brakes do you have?

Thank you,
Fedor

Answer from jbo

 

Hi Fedor, thanks for pointing out the issue with our photo. It should now correctly show the Vipec brakes. Black Diamond, who distributes Fritschi in North America, lists the maximum ski size the brakes will fit which is larger than the spec sizes that Fritschi uses. The 100 is the same as the 108.
