Well, I'm getting more savvy with this forum stuff and about 15 minutes of jumping pages and editing my profile... just gonna do it and post something.

I've owned Cyclebrakes.com for over 5 years now. I was one of the first mail order businesses to offer Galfer because they used to be hard to find.. and now they are in demand many dealers are getting wise and offering the brand. We also carry EBC, Brembo, etc, etc but stick to the brake industry since that's what we know. I used to import Puig screens to.. but sold that off to a friend since I've got a family to run also.

How'd I get started and that's a strange thing for a woman to do... these are questions I often get... willing to share if you truly are interested.

Why am I on the board? Again, getting more computer literate (year 2007 and all) and to start a group buy on Galfer lines if there is interest.

Look forward to chattin'.

You've got a good company there! I ordered new rotors and pads a few weeks back and the guy who took the order (over the phone, EOD Friday) actually put the order together and got it out to UPS immediately, even tho the weekend was minutes away. I was impressed by how fast I got the package

Welcome to the board. Lotsa good people here!

Melissa, welcome - as was stated, PICS are a requirement, them's

!
I am sure there is interest in a group buy - but there are a couple of things that we need to work out first - PM sent.

 

[dadofthree]

[rockadaous]

that's great. welcome to the board. I see you know the magic word. Group Buy lol

 

[GSXcite]

Glad to have you on the org.

 

[bquinn]

Welcome from newb to newb

 

[Cycle Brakes]

Thanks for the welcome... nice to come in and see some friendly replies first thing.  Glad that some of you have already done some business with us.   Until we get authorized for a group buy - we'll set up a discount to Hayabusa.org members and free t-shirts with each order this month. Just mention it when you call (1-800-805-2118).

Yes, my husband is Mr. GalferUSA, as you say, Sandro Milesi (3rd generation) -but, CB gets treated like every other dealer.  We have two children -- maybe one can take over my business and one can take over Galfer (making it 4 generations) so we can retire to Baja California 20 years from now... our favorite locale is Mulege and the riding & swim-up bars are awesome.

If someone tells me how to add a picture near my user-name then I'd be glad too.. like I said.. trying to figure this stuff out.

Hey there and welcome to the site .

Have any experience you can share concerning the Brembo Axial Mount upgrade kits ?

Have any pricing but more so , are the kits ever going to be available again ?

Thanks for the welcome!!
Have any of you need for more bling?
(on our site: http://www.cyclebrakes.com/assets/images/web_Platinum.jpg OR http://www.cyclebrakes.com/html/hose_line_fittings.html)

Check these new Platinum lines that Galfer has (matches the Barnett Platinum Series). This is a NEW item from Galfer.  Cost is $10 more per line and they match chrome/polished parts.  
Or if you don't like bling, we can make lines with anodized red, blue or black fittings to match your bike, costs a bit more than the above.

 

[mountainmotor]

No bling , just want to stop the front wheel from rotating at 100mph if I want .

How about that ugrade kit like YoYodyne offers ?

 

[Cycle Brakes]

I've sent an email to Brembo's USA distributor about it... waiting on a reply.
Fred at Yoyodyne directly imports and he sells his stuff at reasonable prices. Basically this is a 320mm rotor with new calipers, brake lines and mastercylinder (the picture you posted is generic - not for the Busa). You wouldn't need the relocation brackets since they come with 320mm units from stock. Brembo USA has backordered the 320mm rotors (coming in 1-2 weeks) but I could swap the rotors out with Galfer Wave units and other lines - I already have the master cylinder in stock (hardware & res. too). So would just need to get the calipers if you wanted them - let me know which style. You've seen the pricing online but I'm sure if you wanted to do the swaps it would save you some money and time.
