Diract 4-post brakes cover 10 to 75 lb-ft with cast iron or steel covers, with or without hub seals. 8700 Style brakes reach 105 lb-ft and mount without disassembly, with the Dings standard hub or an alternate hub configuration. The 1-70 Flexmount puts 1.5 to 25 lb-ft on 182TC to 256TC frames, with optional DC coils.
