Since 1950 Hayes has been a brake company. In 1997, Hayes revolutionized the mountain bike industry with the introduction of the first MTB hydraulic braking system: the dual piston HFX Mag.
In 2000 Hayes 6 bolt hub and 74 mm post-mount standards were published as open standards for the industry to follow.
For a decade Hayes ruled the MTB brake market but then they went quiet. They were still making excellent brakes, like the MTB Pryme, Stroker and Radar, but keeping a low profile and focusing on other industries.
Another decade went by with Hayes quietly developing and testing a world beating MTB brake, with an unmatched combination of power and control.
In 2018, Hayes released a new brake to change the market: The Dominion.
Suspension has the biggest impact on your ride compared to any other component on your bike. It's important to get it right and maintain your suspension for a longer life and better performance.
