Ski Trab Brakes

Really cool friction-free ski brake from Ski Trab. The Italians are always on the leading edge of ski technology and Trab in-particular has both speed and safety in mind. Compatible with the Gara Titan bindings, the brakes are mounted directly underneath the heel piece, which results in a secure connection. A free-spinning, free-sliding ball eliminates friction so as to not change release values. It also avoids negative ramp angles when skinning in flat-on-ski mode. The ball is loaded on a symmetric spring to fully enable the elasticity of the Titan Release binding. A clever locking mechanism keeps the brakes retracted when skinning. The whole mechanism sits flat on the ski or can ride atop the Flex 30 adjustment plate. The Trab Titan brakes are a marvel of passionate engineering. Plus, at a mere 62g per side, you will hardly even notice they are there.

• Titanium alloy arms are light and incredibly sturdy.
• Stainless steel reaction springs resist corrosion and enable return-to-center.
• Low-friction operation reduces impact on release values.
• Mounts directly in between the heel piece and top sheet.
• Compatible with Flex 30 adjustment plates.
• Sold as a set.

Bought a set of the 115mm TR2 brakes for my second pair of TR2's. As usual Skimo is the only place with them on tap so thanks for that. Also have to shout Trab out for packing the brakes in a skin bag! Cannot say enough good about Trab & Skimo.
