Tektro Brakes

Tektro is a Taiwanese brake manufacturer with decades of experience producing brake systems for road, mountain bike and commuter applications. As both an OEM supplier to major bike brands and a standalone component brand, Tektro has developed a comprehensive range of hydraulic and mechanical disc brakes, rim brakes and brake levers that cover essentially every current bicycle braking application.

Why Choose Tektro?

Tektro brakes deliver reliable stopping performance at price points that make upgrading or replacing worn brake systems straightforward. Their hydraulic disc brake range in particular has earned strong reviews for modulation and consistency - providing confident braking on NZ's often wet trails and roads without the premium pricing of higher-end alternatives.

Hydraulic Disc Brakes - MTB

Tektro's HD-M and Auriga series hydraulic disc brakes provide confident, modulated stopping power for mountain bikes. Compatible with common rotor sizes and mounting standards, these brakes are a popular upgrade choice for NZ riders looking to step up from mechanical disc or rim brakes on trail and commuter bikes.

Hydraulic Disc Brakes - Road and Gravel

Tektro's road hydraulic disc brakes cover flat bar and drop bar applications, providing the all-weather stopping confidence that disc brakes deliver on NZ's wet road descents. Their road hydraulic range is compatible with standard road brake lever systems and uses mineral oil for easy maintenance.

Mechanical Disc Brakes

Tektro's mechanical disc brake range provides reliable cable-actuated disc braking for riders who prefer the simplicity of cable systems or need a brake compatible with standard mechanical levers. Durable, easy to adjust and available in multiple caliper sizes, these are a practical choice for commuter and budget trail builds.

Rim Brakes

Tektro remains a major producer of quality rim brakes for road bikes, hybrids and commuters. Their alloy dual-pivot and cantilever options provide good braking performance for bikes where rim brakes remain appropriate, and are widely available as OEM and replacement parts across NZ.

Brake Levers and Accessories

Tektro also produces standalone brake levers, brake pads and accessories for existing brake system upgrades and replacements. Whether you need to replace worn lever hoods, upgrade to ergonomically improved levers or replace brake pads on your current calipers, Tektro's broad catalogue covers the common requirements.
