BOX Components is launching a titanium replacement bolt program called BOX Bolts starting with 6Al-4V titanium, cantilever brake bosses. Available in raw titanium or with a gold anodized finish, the bosses fit most BMX frame brake boss mounts and weigh just 11 grams/0.38 ounces per pair. Swapping the original steel bosses for the titanium is a simple process and will take a skilled mechanic less than 10 minutes to complete.
