I just heard about this nifty little contraption… the Bike Brake. Seems like a no-brainer to have in your pocket for parking your bike, photo shoots or standing against a wall in your garage. We’ve all had our bikes wander on us after we set them against the rear bumper or a wall, but this little number looks to be an easy solution. However, a heavy-duty rubber band can really do the same trick.

In September 2009, Bike Brake introduced their new bicycle parking brake for use on bicycles not equipped with kickstands. Designed with a low profile to remain on the grip, it is durable, lightweight, and un-obstructive. Bike Brake features two grab tabs to easily lift and extend around the brake lever to keep the front wheel from spinning, greatly stabilizing the bicycle when stood upright. Now available in nine colors Bike Brake fits both road and mountain bikes.
“Bicycles are very expensive and there is always the potential for them to fall when temporarily parked. This can scratch the bike or often the car it rests against,” said Kendall Kelsen, President of Bike Brake. “It takes less time to apply the Bike Brake than to attempt a good bike balance. You can be confident your bike will stay in place.”
Bike Brake can be used when preparing for a ride, taking a break, performing maintenance, or storing the bicycle. There is also a theft deterrent factor when the bicycle is unattended. MSRP is $2.99 each.
