About this product
The Dia-Compe 988 Cantilever brake caliper is a white bicycle brake designed for BMX or MTB use. This component functions as a brake shoe (non-threaded post) and weighs 8.000 ounces. It is a genuine Dia-Compe part, providing a specific braking solution for bikes equipped with cantilever brake systems.
Our take
For those needing a cantilever brake solution, this Dia-Compe 988 caliper in white is a straightforward option. It's listed as a brake shoe with a non-threaded post, which is a bit ambiguous if it's the caliper or just a shoe. Assuming it's a caliper, it's suitable for older BMX or MTB setups that utilize cantilever brakes. The specific weight of 8.000 ounces suggests it's a single unit, so you'd likely need two for a complete bike. Its white finish provides a distinct look that could complement certain bike aesthetics.
