The HEL V2 Billet Radial Master Cylinder offers the ultimate upgrade in braking control and build quality for riders who demand precision, performance, and premium craftsmanship. Engineered by HEL Performance in the UK, this master cylinder is fully CNC-machined from solid 6082-T6 aluminium billet — never cast, delivering superior strength, finish consistency and reliability under load.
With its radial piston design, multiple ratio options, lever lengths, and adjustable features, the V2 is designed for everything from performance street bikes to track machines — giving you better lever feel, consistent pressure, and customised ergonomics that make a real difference on the road or circuit.
When selecting your HEL V2, two critical choices must be made — the piston bore size (which influences hydraulic pressure and lever feel) and the handlebar clamp/bar diameter (which ensures fitment to your bike’s bars):
16 mm Bore – Ideal for smaller bikes, single-disc front brake setups, or clutch systems. Offers greater lever travel, softer feel, and increased modulation.
19 mm Bore – Engineered for twin-disc front calipers or highperformance motorcycles. Delivers firmer lever feel, quicker bite and stronger brake response.
22 mm Clamp (7/8″ bars) – Suits the majority of sportbikes, naked bikes, and custom builds with standard handlebar diameter. (Standard)
25 mm Clamp (1″ bars) – Designed for cruisers, tourers, or bikes with 1″ handlebars (such as many Harleys) offering perfect fitment without compromise. (Custom Order)
By choosing the correct combination, you’ll ensure your HEL V2 master cylinder is not only high performance, but also intimately matched to your machine — both in feel and fit.
