Monobloc aluminum billet caliper, carbon brake disc and carbon pads
Carbon ensures a triple advantage: reduction of not suspended masses, friction coefficient identical from the start to the finish line and absence of residual torque issues that can concern steel discs.
The Brembo 4 piston monobloc calipers for the Moto GP are drawn from a single block of aluminum-lithium material. The shape of the caliper body is designed in order to optimize the mass/stiffness relationship whilst the surface is nickel plated. One of the most obvious differences compared to the calipers fitted to road bikes is the presence of “quick couplings” for purging and feeding that allow for rapid caliper replacement or bleeding between test sessions or during the same session.
