I made a super long brake arm and in terms of strength/ease, id put it up against anything you can buy, short of a disc setup. Notice there are no lock nuts on the front of the arm. This lets the hand and foot brakes work more independently of each other, which helps a ton. A drop of blue loctite keeps the adjustment nuts from falling off.

This was originally a prototype, but I cant find anything I want to change.
