Hayes Brake has been leading the pack in brake technology since 1946. That same commitment to breakthrough design and performance was extended to the mountain bike market in 1997 when Hayes Disc Brake was formed. The revolutionary products that Hayes Disc Brake introduced set a new standard for hydralic bicycle disc brakes worldwide. Starting in 1997 with just three US and six international distributors, Hayes Disc Brake now serves customers in more than 50 countries with warehouses in the US, Europe and Asia.
