Competition brake link for KYOSHO FW05 chassis

This anodised aluminium brake bar is supplied as a precision aftermarket link for KYOSHO FW05-R and FW05RR touring chassis. It replaces the standard plastic linkage to provide a firmer pivot and repeatable actuation, aimed at consistent braking performance under race conditions.

Fitting mirrors standard practice: remove the factory plastic part, locate the aluminium bar in the original position, secure with the stock mounting screws, and confirm full servo travel and pedal response. The component is engineered to align with factory mounting points and requires only common hex tools for installation.

From a setup perspective the aluminium link reduces compliance in the braking train and keeps pedal position stable across runs, which helps when tuning brake balance and feel. Use it where consistent mechanical response and improved wear resistance are priorities for track use.

Does this suit competition-level setups?

Yes. The reduced flex compared with plastic helps deliver repeatable pedal feel desirable in competitive setups.

Are any geometry changes required to use this part?

No geometry changes are expected; the part is intended to match the stock mounting positions so braking geometry remains consistent.

What should I check after repeated race runs?

Inspect mounting fasteners for tightness and check the pivot area for any wear. Maintaining secure mounting and smooth pivot operation preserves consistent brake response.
