Hayes has thrown their hat in the (very small) arena of short-pull mechanical disc brakes with the
CX-5. With the increased popularity of disc brakes for applications outside of mountain biking and a growing demand for calipers operable with short pull road levers, it's nice to have another option that falls between their competitor''s price points. It comes in a few grams lighter than the other guys thanks to a one piece forged caliper and sports a seductive smoke anodized finish. Available with either 140mm and 160mm rotors.
