A brake safety apparatus that prevents an over the handlebar accident caused by applying too much brake force to the front brake of a bicycle is presented. The present invention works by effectively extending the length of the brake cable connected between the brake lever and the brake caliper on the front brake of a bicycle. An embodiment of brake release system comprises a brake cable housing coupled to a piston at a distal end of the lumen of a housing. The piston resides within the lumen of the housing. Between the piston and the proximal end of the housing is a compression spring with a desired spring rate and a preload breakout force. The proximal end of the housing is fixedly coupled to the front braking system of a bicycle.
