G3 Zed Brakes 115Mm

The G3 ZED Brakes are a set of two add-on brakes made for the G3 ZED tech binding. This 115mm version weighs 87 grams per brake and works with both current and previous ZED 9 and ZED 12 bindings. Installation and removal take a Pozi #3 screwdriver, so the job can happen at home, at the trailhead, or out in the field.

The honest trade-off is weight. ZED bindings are built to be light, and adding brakes puts 87 grams back on each ski. For many skiers that is a fair price for not chasing a runaway ski down the fall line, and the easy on and off design means the choice can change with the day's objective.

These brakes suit ZED owners who split time between resort laps and touring, skiers who want the security of a brake on bigger days, and anyone who bought their ZEDs brakeless and has since changed their mind.

G3 notes that the brakes fit most skis up to 5mm wider than the stated brake width, so the 115mm brake covers skis up to roughly 120mm underfoot. Match the brake to your ski's waist width for best function.

We like these as a simple, field-friendly upgrade that makes a great lightweight binding even more versatile.
