Technologies:
Ice Technologies
The brake made with Ice technology has rigid pistons that quickly dissipate heat. This not only increases the life of the linings and caliper, but also their effectiveness. The finned pads, heat sink and special brake design also have a positive effect.
Four Piston
A braking system that involves the use of opposed pistons of different sizes. The pistons transmit the braking force to the disc with different force. This avoids brake runout during braking and ensures quiet operation.
