BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — Baer Brakes, part of the Holley Performance Brands portfolio, has introduced Baer BIG Claw Performance Brake Kits and Baer Claw Rotors. Designed for modern truck enthusiasts, the products are engineered to improve a vehicle’s stopping power while also elevating the overall style, look and feel.

Popular vehicle fitments for the innovative new Baer products include the Ford F-150, Ford Bronco, Ram Trucks, Jeep JL/JT, Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and Chevrolet Suburban.

Engineered to match today’s trend of larger diameter wheels, tires and heavier vehicles, the Baer BIG Claw platform delivers enhanced braking capability and shorter stopping distances in an easy-to-install, packaged kit format. Rigorous product testing conducted by the Holley and Baer teams showed upgrading a vehicle with the Baer BIG Claw system reduces stopping distance by more than 20 feet versus the stock brake set-up.

For 30-plus years Baer Brakes has provided performance brake technology. With a growing addressable market of more than 43 million vehicles in operation, Baer’s latest products position Holley to capitalize on the fast-growing modern truck vehicle category and complement other product launches in 2024 for modern truck enthusiasts.

“We are thrilled to introduce the new Baer BIG Claw Brake kit, designed to meet the diverse needs of our customers,” said Matthew Stevenson, president/CEO of Holley Performance Brands. “Whether you’re towing a trailer with greater gross combination weight, adding larger wheels and tires which can degrade stock braking performance, or simply seeking improved braking performance, the Baer BIG Claw Brake kit delivers unmatched reliability and safety. Experience the confidence of enhanced braking power with every drive.”

Key features and benefits of the new product include:

  • Improved stopping performance over 20 feet shorter compared to stock brakes
  • Utilizes factory caliper and pads, reducing complexity and cost
  • Simple, bolt-on installation

“Our new Baer products represent a bold step forward in delivering top-tier performance that truck enthusiasts demand,” said Osvaldo Gallegos, Vice President, Mechanical Division. “By providing enhanced braking power and ease of installation, we’re ensuring that both daily drivers and weekend off-roaders can trust our products for safety and reliability. This launch reaffirms our commitment to innovation and leadership in the modern truck market.”
