Description
Colony Removable Brake Mount Kit – Black (M8 × 1.25mm)
The Colony removable brake mount kit provides replacement 990/U-brake mounting hardware for frames with removable brake bosses. Designed specifically for Colony BMX frames including the Monash, Sweet Tooth, Tradition, and Exon, these mounts use M8 × 1.25mm threading and may also fit other frames using the same removable brake mount system. This kit allows riders to replace worn or damaged brake mounts or add brake capability to compatible frames.
Key Features
- Removable Brake Mount Design – Threaded bosses screw into frame-mounted inserts rather than being permanently welded; allows for brake mount replacement if threads strip or bosses break, and enables riders to remove mounts entirely for a cleaner look when running brakeless
- 990/U-Brake Compatibility – Mount spacing and boss design work with standard 990-style and U-brake calipers commonly used on BMX bikes for rear braking
- M8 × 1.25mm Threading – Standard thread pitch for removable brake systems; ensures proper engagement with frame inserts and secure mounting under braking forces
- Colony Frame Specification – Engineered to fit Colony Monash, Sweet Tooth, Tradition, and Exon frames; may also work with other manufacturers' frames using the same removable mount system

Compatibility and Ideal Use Cases
This brake mount kit fits frames with removable brake mount inserts using M8 × 1.25mm threading. Specifically designed for Colony BMX frames listed above but may work with other brands using the same removable mount standard. Best suited for riders who need to replace damaged brake mounts, want to restore brake capability to a frame currently running brakeless, or are building up a Colony frame and need brake hardware. The removable design is ideal for riders who switch between braked and brakeless setups depending on riding style or discipline. Verify your frame uses M8 × 1.25mm removable brake mounts before purchasing—frames with permanently welded brake bosses or different thread sizes will not be compatible.
