WPH,

The front brake is a TRP CX8.4 brake it is designed for road levers and no travel agent is required. The brake works great with the road levers, it's a strong brake with good modulation. The rear is an Avid road disk brake. My Co Motion on the other hand has Avid single digit V brakes and they require the travel agents. They work pretty darn good with the travel agents but the travel agent has to be installed correctly. The TRP brake on the other hand is really the cats meow with road levers.

Take Care,
Bill G
