Formula Cura 4 Kashima Disc Brake (TRFA+FCS) 2027

Formula Cura 4 Kashima – The Ultimate Braking Evolution
With the all-new Cura 4 Kashima, Formula pushes the boundaries of its most powerful brake even further. Building on the legendary performance of the Cura 4, the goal was simple: refine every detail to offer an even smoother, more precise, and customizable braking experience, without ever compromising on raw power and reliability.

Kashima Coat® Treatment: Unmatched Smoothness
Formula applies the exclusive Kashima Coat® treatment (performed directly in Japan by Miyaki) across the entire brake, namely the caliper, as well as on the external and internal parts of the master cylinder, offering real advantages:

• Friction Reduced to a Minimum: This ultra-smooth finish provides an incredibly light, fluid, and consistent lever action, regardless of the weather conditions.
• Exclusive Racing Look: Beyond mechanical performance, the distinctive gold tint of Kashima gives this brake a unique, high-end aesthetic.

Uninterrupted Power and Surgical Modulation
The 4-piston 18 mm caliper continues to deliver phenomenal stopping power. Combined with an optimized pad surface and increased thickness, the Cura 4 Kashima offers progressive, confidence-inspiring braking, from the most aggressive Enduro stages to the most demanding Downhill (DH) tracks.

FCS Lever as Standard: Total Customization
This Premium edition now features Formula's high-end two-piece lever as standard, offering the following adjustments:

• FCS (Feeling Control System): This unique system allows you to adjust the contact point and brake behavior (choosing between an ultra-direct or a more progressive feel) to match your riding style exactly.
