Brembo consolidates its involvement with the world's most prestigious motorbikes


BREMBO CONSOLIDATES ITS INVOLVEMENT WITH THE WORLD'S MOST PRESTIGIOUS MOTORBIKES
Brembo's attendance at the 2018 edition of the International Motorcycling Exhibition (EICMA) has been hallmarked by innovation. The expansion of applications of #brembo #components over a broad range of vehicles consolidates the company's position as world leader in the design, development and production of braking systems.

NEW SYSTEM FOR THE HARLEY-DAVIDSON TRIKE

Collaboration going back a decade with Harley-Davidson now extends into the 2019 range of #trike models. Two new models - the Freewheeler and Tri Glide Ultra - saw #brembo design and build a rear brake system that, although completely updated, keeps faith with the style of the Milwaukee-based company.
At the front, there is a pair of fixed calipers with 4 x 32 mm pistons, while at the rear, thanks to the two wheels and #trike suspension system, there are two floating calipers with 36 mm pistons with a built-in parking brake. All calipers are made of aluminium and have sintered pads.
To ensure an effective combination of service and parking brakes on this size of vehicle (492 kg for the Freewheeler, 546 kg for the Tri Glide Ultra), the rear calipers have parking mechanisms derived from cars, together with a new 16 mm diameter brake master cylinder and 270 mm diameter and 7 mm thick cast iron discs.
