Watch: Front Brake Kit Install
Step-by-step fitting of the EBG front brake kit, filmed in our workshop. The brake kit is the same on V1 and V2 – only the rotor guard style differs.
- Filmed step by step in the EBG workshop.

Classic Shield Guard for Sting, MX3, MX4, MX5 and XXX
The same brake as our V2 Talaria kit — 240 or 250mm floating rotor, genuine Sur-Ron Ultra Bee caliper and master cylinder, semi-metallic pads, steel-braided line — built around the closed-face rotor guard. Pick your Talaria above and the bracket is cut for that fork.
- Fits five Talaria models — Sting, MX3, MX4, MX5 and XXX, each with its own bracket
- A solid plate over the rotor — closed face rather than an open frame
- Seven anodised finishes — including Grey and Dark Brown, which the V2 guard does not offer
- Genuine Ultra Bee caliper + master cylinder — not a copy
Classic Shield or Open Frame — Which EBG Guard?
This kit and the V2 kit are the same brake. The only thing that changes is the rotor guard, and that is a choice about how you ride, not about stopping power.
| Classic Shield — this kit | Open Frame — V2 kit | |
|---|---|---|
| Guard face | Solid plate, closed face | Open frame, rotor left exposed |
| Colours | 7 — including Grey and Dark Brown | 5 |
| Caliper | Genuine Sur-Ron Ultra Bee | Identical |
| Master cylinder | Genuine Sur-Ron Ultra Bee, right hand | Identical |
| Rotor | 240 or 250 × 3.5 mm floating | Identical |
| Pads and line | Semi-metallic, steel-braided PTFE | Identical |
| Price | The same either way — pick the guard you prefer | |

What It Replaces on a Talaria
Talaria shipped the Sting and early MX3 with a 203mm front rotor and moved the MX4, MX5 and XXX to 220mm. Both are fixed discs. This kit puts every one of them on a 240 or 250mm floating rotor at 3.5mm, for up to 30% more stopping power — 9 to 23% of that from diameter alone depending on your model, the rest from pad compound, line stiffness and the caliper.
Genuine Sur-Ron Ultra Bee Hydraulics
The market is full of Ultra Bee caliper and master cylinder copies. They photograph the same and cost less, and the difference is in the piston bores and the seals — which you find out on a steep descent. Every Talaria kit we ship uses genuine Sur-Ron Ultra Bee parts.
Which Talaria Option Do I Need?
- Brake Kit + Front Rotor Guard + Rotor — the complete kit with the classic shield guard. Choose the V2.1 or V3.0 rotor.
- Brake Kit + Rotor — the same, without the guard.
- Brake Kit Only — for a bike already running a 240 or 250mm rotor.
- Front Brake Bracket Only — the radial mount bracket on its own, M6 x 68mm or M5 x 45mm.
