Waiting time - But amazing quality product There is a lot of turmoil and mixed reviews of past transactions about Ted and his brand, but I really wanted to get my hands in this new brakes. I had direct communication with him and i got a great deal on the very last model , I did my order , and yes, I DID had to wait several weeks until finally I get shipment confirmation ,so between some order delays , and some patience mixed , I have to say Ted always replied , when the brakes arrived I was more than amazed, amazing construction and weight , easy to install and to set! Ultra L8 such an amazing piece of art! i will update about the durability and performance in 6months time. Thanks Ciamillo !

Ciamillo G20 Brakes I have been using the G20 brakes for about 3 years. This brakeset is being used with Campagnolo levers. These levers were a big improvement over the Campy brakes. I found the Ciamillo brakes offered much better stopping power with my Mavic carbon wheels. Setup was key to getting the brakes to function at their best. I was initially frustrated with the performance. When I went back and re-read the installation instrucions, that made all the difference. Moving the set screw in or out to adjust clearance is key to getting optimal performance from these brakes.

Exceptional customer service I purchased a set of L8 Ultra calipers in the summer of 2022, and unfortunately the front caliper was damaged in a race crash in September of that year. I contacted Ted to inquire about a replacement, and was blown away by his offer to replace the caliper free of charge! There were some delays in receiving the replacement, but Ted is an artisan who also relies on other providers for components. Ted is a great guy, and very easy to communicate with - all you have to do is give him a ring, and he is almost always sure to answer. I highly recommend Ted to anyone looking for a lightweight, made in the USA, high performance brake caliper!

Ciamillo B1 I knew Ciamillo brand when they launch zero gravity Gravitas SL back in early 2010, can’t remember exact year. Until recently, I have finally got my hand on a pair of Ciamillo B1 brakes. The quality is amazing, the finishing on the carbon fibre is so good specially the edges, although it’s not cheap, considering the time and effort has been put into it, I think it is worth it. Will update when installed on my Brompton.

Horrible experience Hi, I bought Lekki8 from Ted Ciamillo in 2021 and while the product delivered is as stated (light and functional, though does not provide as powerful braking as the heavier mainstream products), I had to wait 3 MONTHS for the product to arrive, following my payment. In the meantime, I was deceived and manipulated by Ted in his procrastinating emails and lost a lot of nerves and time. The delay also messed up my training and racing plans. All in all, I am fortunate not to have been completely robbed by this person. Customer service at Ciamillo is horrible, so take that into account when considering purchasing an otherwise cool product from TC.
