My impression of the brakes
The installation was extremely straight forward and easy to install. I absolutely fell in love with this brake setup. It was an amazing upgrade from the stock 1 piston caliper and was by far the best price available by any company. Plus the powdercoating job was immaculate and Alex at onadime makes sure you get exactly what you want! I have never experienced as good of customer service as i did at onadimepb.com!!

What is Powder Coating?
So, you've heard of it, but, you're not quite sure exactly what powder coating is. According to the Powder Coating Institute's web page, "Powder coating is an advanced method of applying a decorative and protective finish to a wide range of materials and products that are used by both industries and consumers. The powder used for the process is a mixture of finely ground particles of pigment and resin, which is sprayed onto a surface to be coated. The charged powder particles adhere to the electrically grounded surfaces until heated and fused into a smooth coating in a curing oven. The result is a uniform, durable, high-quality, and attractive finish." There, so now you know ! Or do you?
Why is Powder Coating Better?
- More Durable - Powder coating gives consumers, businesses, and industry one of the most economical, longest-lasting, and most color-durable quality finishes available. Powder coating surfaces are more resistant to chipping, scratching, fading, and wearing than other finishes.
- Color Selection- virtually unlimited with high and low gloss, metallic, and clear finishes available. Thanks to the UV resistance of many of the powders, colors stay bright and vibrant longer. Texture selections range from smooth surfaces to a wrinkled or matte finish, and rough textures designed for hiding surface imperfections.
- Protects the Environment - Powder coating is also highly protective of our environment. While liquid finishes contain solvents which have pollutants known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), powder coating contains no solvents and releases negligible amounts, if any, of VOCs into the atmosphere. Thus, there is no longer a need for finishers to buy costly pollution control equipment. In addition, most powder coating overspray that does not adhere to the part can be retrieved and reused. Although this is not always practical for many of the low-volume users we service, this can virtually eliminate the waste commonly found in liquid finishing processes.
- Saves Money - Elimination of VOCs and reduction of wastes saves money and helps companies comply more easily and economically with the regulations of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. In fact, one of the major elements in expanding the market for powder coating has been the implementation over the past 30 years of stringent air pollution control legislation.
