With the new Cura 4 Kashima, we pushed the evolution of our most powerful brake even further. Building on the legendary performance of the Cura 4, our goal was simple: refine every detail to create an even smoother, more precise and more customizable braking experience without compromising the power and reliability riders expect.
The Cura 4 Kashima benefits from Formula’s extensive experience with Miyaki’s renowned Kashima Coat® treatment, already proven for years on our high-end suspension components. Applied to the master cylinder piston in their factory in Japan, this exclusive finish reduces friction, delivering an even lighter, smoother and more consistent lever action in every condition.
The four 18 mm pistons continue to provide exceptional stopping power with unmatched modulation and control. Combined with the optimized pad surface and increased pad thickness, the Cura 4 Kashima offers progressive, confidence-inspiring braking from aggressive enduro stages to full downhill race tracks.
This premium edition now comes equipped as standard with our two-piece FCS lever. Featuring tool-free reach adjustment and Formula’s unique Feeling Control System, riders can fine-tune the brake character to match their riding style, choosing between a more progressive or more direct lever feel with absolute precision.
Like every Cura brake, the Cura 4 Kashima is fully forged and anodized to guarantee maximum structural integrity, long-term durability and low weight. The new Kashima finish not only enhances performance, but also gives the brake a distinctive premium appearance inspired by the highest level of racing technology.
Delivered with sintered pads installed for maximum braking performance, and an additional set of organic pads included for quieter operation and easy setup, the Cura 4 Kashima is designed to adapt perfectly to every rider and every terrain.
Power, modulation, refinement and customization, the new Cura 4 Kashima represents the ultimate evolution of Formula braking performance.
