When it comes to safety, no bicycle components are more important than brakes. Properly installed and adjusted brakes are essential for riding a bicycle with the highest level of safety.
Rim brakes are still the most common type of bicycle brakes. This is not surprising, as the mechanism of this type of brake is quite simple: during braking, the two opposing brake pads of the rim brake are pressed against the braking surfaces of the rim. As a result of the friction, the kinetic energy of the rim is converted into heat, and the bicycle slows down. Rim brakes are used on all everyday bikes as well as in professional cycling, where the low weight of rim brakes is one of the main factors.
Rim brakes come in two different designs. There are versions with one mounting bolt (centered above the bicycle tire) or with two mounting bolts (Cantilever, on the left and right of the tire) on the bicycle fork.
An essential factor for the proper functioning of a rim brake is a well-centered wheel. An imbalance or deformation of the wheel will cause the braking force to be unevenly distributed across both brake pads.
The advantages of rim brakes are their relatively low purchase price and good availability.
The drawbacks of rim brakes include the lower braking power compared to disc brakes, the risk of tube blowouts due to overheating of the rim after prolonged braking, and the wear on the braking surfaces of the rim, which is a load-bearing component.
In the lightweight construction sector, the trend is clearly moving towards carbon rim brakes. The properties of carbon fibers, namely very low weight combined with exceptional stability, set new standards in terms of weight.
However, the purchase price of these lightweight brakes is significantly above average, as the manufacturing and processing of carbon bicycle parts is extremely costly.
Well-known manufacturers of lightweight rim brakes include THM-Carbones, TRP, and Campagnolo.
