Hayes is celebrating 25-year history in the cycling world by releasing a limited-edition “Purple Hayes” Dominion A4 Brake Kit.
The brake is a throwback to the brand's legendary Mag brakes from the late '90s – as well as a nod in the direction of guitar rock from the '60s, of course. Hayes arguably set the benchmark with its design, zinc construction, and huge power. Why purple you ask, well the original brakes used by the likes of Specialized-Mountain Dew, Volvo-Cannondale, Trek-Volkswagen, Tomac Racing, and others came in Champagne with purple logos. Hayes then did a purple anodization, which played off the purple Hayes logo on the team version.
