Bringing a completely new meaning to ABS….the APV is the most Advanced Braking System on the market!
The patented Ashima Power Valve (APV) technology delivers the performance of a 26mm Down-Hill monster but provides the feather-light control/modulation and finesse normally associated with a light-weight cross-county system.
The patented axially mounted piston configuration gives all the benefits of a multi-piston system….such as progressive feel and of course, the phenomenal stopping power provided by the additional piston area… but in the weight/space envelope of a standard 2-piston brake.
Ashima APV…. setting the standard!

ー 2 Stage brake performance
1st Stage: Total controlled deceleration, braking force is only generated by the 14mm inner pistons, for when you simply want to kill speed but not stop.
2nd Stage: Ultimate performance stopping power, braking force generated by both the 14mm and 22mm outer
pistons giving a combined area equivalent to 26mm, for……when you want the World to stop!
ー APV: Ashima Power Valve technology
ー 4 Co-axially mounted pistons, for power without the weight
ー External fluid transfer, to limit “pump-up”
ー Kick Down feel in the lever, giving the feed-back and total control
ー Air cooled pistons
ー Unrivaled aesthetics

| PCB: World's 1st Pistonless Hydraulic Brake |
The PCB has turned over 100 years of disk braking history on its head.
Ashima re-invented the hydraulic brake by making the seal do the work of the piston. The patented diaphragm technology delivers the performance of a traditional 21mm piston system….but in a significantly reduced package, making it….as flat as a PanCake!
Seal expansion is prevented via a diaphragm shield which is manufactured from heat retardant engineering plastic and protects the seal form the heat generated by braking. Although with the use of a high temperature performance rubber the seal itself can withstand temperatures in excess of 400degC…so the cap only serves to enhance the thermal endurance of the system putting it above or on par with traditional brakes.
