THM Carbones Fibula

  • THM-Carbones-Fibula
    The most important features of the THM-Carbones Fibula:
    • Record-breaking stiffness-to-weight ratio achieved by a new and innovative design concept
    • Absolutely lightweight: Only 120 grams weight per pair!!
    • Suitable for racing use (max. 110 kg rider weight)

    The company THM-Carbones is standing for intransigence concerning lightweight and stable bicycle components. The technical know-how, which was collected by THM in the past years, now leads to the lightest products worldwide.
    Besides the "Fibula" brake, THM is producing further components, which are all presenting record-braking achievements concerning their stiffness-to-weight ratio.
    All products produced by THM-Carbones mark the actual technical maximum and set new standards. For THM, this is more important as to offer cheap and casual conponents.
    THM-Carbones offers exclusivity, fascinating light weight, exceptional quality and the peace of mind that comes from unmatched safety.
    Quality, made in Germany.

    The Fibula provides maximum braking power combined with extraordinary lightweight.

    The brakeset has an overall weight from unbelievable 120 grams (front 60 grams / rear 60 grams) without making a compromise concerning the braking power.
    Therefore, the THM-Carbones Fibula rim break unifies the apparently impossible. The braking level is like Red©, Super Record© & Co.
    This was only becoming possible through an new, innovative construction concept which uses the advantages of the carbon fibre technology extremely effective.

    The THM-Carbones Fibula rim brakes have an different gear ratio between the front and the rear wheel - specialized to the various braking requirements of the particular wheels.
    The rear wheel uses a reduction of the ratio for a wise braking flow while the front wheel uses a constructed, force amplifying leverage effect to provide a maximum of braking power.

    Technical facts of the THM-Carbones Fibula:
    • Weight: 110 grams, without brakepads (front brake: 60g / rear brake: 50g)
    • Mounting: THM-Carbones Fibula mounting
    • Compatible brakepads: All brakepads suitable for Shimano© standard.
    • Compatible brake levers: The THM-Carbones Fibula can be used with all brake levers that exhibit a leverage ratio of 2.5:1 and above (brake lever travel : inner brake cable travel).
      Virtually all popular levers possess this leverage ratio (Shimano® levers prior to 2009/2010 (DuraAce 7800, Ultegra 6600); SRAM® (RED, Force); Campagnolo® (Super Record, Record, Chorus).
      Shimano® levers from up to 2010 series (DuraAce 7900, Ultegra 6700) have a lower leverage ratio.
      This mainly affects the braking performance of the rear Fibula brake. Nevertheless the braking power will be still high enough to block the rear wheel with slightly increased hand power.
    • Motion ratio brakes: 1:1,5 front, 1:0,75 rear
    • max. permissible total weight: 110 kg (243lbs)
    • Versions: THM-Carbones Fibula brake set front+rear (shiny/matt), Fibula front brake (shiny/matt), Fibula rear brake (shiny/matt)
    • Brake shoes: With 10g per pair the brake pads are the lightest standard brake pads in the world. They are compatible with all current brakes of racing bicycles.
