Look what drummers are saying about KBrakes!

I bought some after years of playing hardcore music and having my drums move - even if only slightly. They actually work great. Just as advertised. - Kurt Buske I have an 18" kick drum that was notorious for sliding.  These work amazing and haven't had problem since installing them.  If you're wondering about picking up a pair do yourself a favor and grab a pair.  Been playing for 20 years as well as managed several local drum shops they are worth every penny! - Nick Tolkacevic Just had the ultimate test for my KBrakes this weekend.
