Me and the race boys have been wanting a thumb brake for a while, but there aren't many available suitable options. Brembo do one, but it's the cost of a cheap racebike, and it does away with the foot brake, which doesn't really appeal to me - I use the foot brake for race starts, and if I run off onto the grass at high speed I think my brain is going to default to 'foot brake' mode in a panic.

Then IMA announced their new design, to be released in a couple of weeks. A bit of negotiation later, and Superbike Source is the new exclusive distributor of IMA products in Australia! Along with the truly beautiful, excellent quality tripleclamps and clip-ons, the thumb brakes are really really exciting. There's info and pricing on our website here: http://superbikesource.com.au/produc...umb-Brake.html

What's everyone's thoughts?? I personally can't wait!! I'm too unco to work a foot brake.
