Wild. I don't remember seeing these things they look kinda neat.

Discuss.

Pretty damn good idea but the convenience of a Quik Slic is just the tits for me. That hanger plus an SLS Linear cable might be braking heaven, though.

[Brooklynrider]

I have the version before that. Works well but the odyssey cable with the built in hanger works better and its less work to set up.
Edit: I missed the spring part.

[RighteousBMX]

Oh, apparently the spring hanger provides tension for the whole brake, no springs in the arms. Meh.

[Jobsy]

Looking at this to answer my need for maximal tyre to brake clearance. Less gubbins in the arms = more space for tyre...

The fly brake system will change again next year and the year after that until the end of time

[KillSeth]

I am interested in these, but I am waiting to hear some first-hand experience.

[Narcoleptic Insomniac]

I want to give this a try. Will probably order one around Xmas time.

I think this is A cool idea.

As noted, the spring is the cable hanger.

I'm curious how much tension is on the spring and how much you can bend it back and forth before it breaks.

[Eggit2]

What problem does this solve? I suppose it might be easier to set up, but you also sacrifice a lot. You can't fine tune tension at all or adjust each side individually.

[Mychaylo]

Eggit i uad the same concerns with the springfirld but gave it a go due to the low stack height. Turns out its great tension oit of the box, if this is similar od have confidence in it.

[RighteousBMX]

But the point of the Springfield is that it's cheap; the cost offsets the lack of adjustability. I'm sure the Fly brake won't be cheap and yet will not be very adjustable. Rather run a regular 990.

$35.95 or something in the new Danscomp catalog.

[dude...]

wont be springfield cheap, but will be cheap compared to the full fleshed fly brake im sure

Now with 100% less adjustabilities!
