Is there any possibility to see you riding with this brake? It would be specially good if your rim wouldn't be straight and there were no music.

of course!

considering that the qualification for wheel building states that u can allow 2mm of buckle in a wheel from brand new then that is a very bad idea in my eyes cos ur going to be forever trueing wheels? i have a good 3-4mm between my pads and rim. and for it to say that u will expeirience a slight rubbing if the wheel is not straight is silly really. if u have a grind u will have no pads left in no time? its not a disc brake so an open system is a bad idea IMO. But i suppose time will tell, it might catch on!

Put down the discussion on the brake....

I can't believe what you say is true ..... first of all, the same Magura recommends spacing the pads of 2mm per side, I have always done that(max 3mm) and although I have not ever had a rim perfectly straight, the pads didn't never rub the rim!

about the new single wall rims, I don't know if they sway so much...... but at this point I would complain more on undulating rims than brakes......

Thanks to everyone for the advice and opinions!

as someone said the problems I encountered are the following:

-little space between pads and rim

-if the support frame is not square well have trouble

-the same way if the rim is not centered well

Instead we can say that these are the positive aspects:

- Easy and quick mount, the slaves will automatically be straight!

- Self-regulation of the pads

- More power thanks to the pump with reservoir (this can also be a downside, could split some frames?)

- The price(i don't think it will be far from echo or magura)

- The weight

Of course we can always improve, thanks again;)

There seem to be quite a few downsides to this setup that sort of outweigh any possible plus points to it.

I think changing to a TR lever might be a bad thing too - different piston sizes for a start, plus you'd be changing it from an open to a closed system so you'd be losing the auto-adjust sort of feature?

I thought about it, and I had an idea, use a thick (2mm) between pad and rim when I bleed the brake, then (once removed) should work like a normal brake HS / Echo!

p.s:I want to clarify that I am not the manufacturer of the brakes! 'm just a friend of the owner of the CSC Chinese brand)

OK! the video is ready, i hope it's clear.

Another thing, are they going to have the little indent on the piston which holds the pad on?

By the looks of the pictures, they dont have it.

Thanks for asking!

this is the problem, the piston is free to move, is not linked to the slave by springs, if it had an indent when you take the pad also remove the piston behind it.

However this is not a problem as it is currently constructed on the brake!

if i put the lever HS33 on CSC slaves, if I manage to get a higher return of the piston, then i should change the attachment of the pad (probably with an o-ring, in this case the cnc backing pads are better!)

I'm glad that you have many questions, the brake is still not on the market, if you have suggestions may be taken into consideration!

please look at this

as soon as possible i upload a video demo and I think to clarify any doubt!

[Csc Rim Brakes]

please wait loading a demo video that I made, I think the video is well understand the operation and also the adjustment!

the weight is 230g for the complete rear brake plus screws, washers and pads!

the weight is similar to the ECHO TR, but the CSC has a heavier pump ...... I'll try to put a pump HS33 (I have at home) on CSC slaves, I hope that works and I hope to gain weight

Today I tested the brakes on a surface inclined at 45 °, the wheel remains locked and I was very happy with the result (considering that I'm using a 38mm rim Alex and then the minimum, not grinded from a bit of time!)

the brake supports rim from 38 up to 47mm!

the brake which Alex has tested is the current model J25,as you can see on the attachment , is recommended for XC use, for us it is recommended the J30, it mounts hope mono trial pads!

about the rim brake, I wrote a topic in "NEWS", however you can see the photos here

[Csc Rim Brakes]

Hello everyone, these days I'm testing a new type of check by the CSC Chinese brand ..... here are some pictures and short video of the assembly and how it works!

I hope you can see them on my FB account, here I put a photo of the complete brake
