Brembo Prototypes

http://www.mtb-extreme.de/technik/20...bo/brembo.html

I ran the german through a translator, but didn't have the best results

It resembles a puzzle. There is still no details recognizable, yet the overall view is already visually seized in thoughts. Like that it is completely alike also with announced novelties of the industry, in which industry. Only few information penetrates to the hearing of the possibly later consumers. Surely also intention of the industry. Rumors create place for ideas and desires, the product come into the discussion. Better and more cheaply an advertisement cannot be actually. Only few humans have the luck to make itself first a clear picture of the material still as prototypes in the test present.

It resembles a puzzle. There is still no details recognizable, yet the overall view is already visually seized in thoughts. Like that it is completely alike also with announced novelties of the industry, in which industry. Only few information penetrates to the hearing of the possibly later consumers. Surely also intention of the industry. Rumors create place for ideas and desires, the product come into the discussion. Better and more cheaply an advertisement cannot be actually. Only few humans have the luck to make itself first a clear picture of the material still as prototypes in the test present. Thus brake manufacturer Brembo made of Italy, world-wide attentive with brake systems for car and motorcycle, makes the number 1 on itself for the moment. Since 1961 and produces Brembo develops brake assemblies and accessories, and success is considerable. Apart from the employment of Brembo brake systems in series production, Brembo brake systems are also in international series as for example of the NASCAR and formula 1. The announcement of the development of a brake for the Mountainbike lets the Biker aufhorchen. Accordingly highly expectations at such are natural a brake. The mtb extreme had the large luck to look at itself together with the team of the bicycle business and framework place watzup in Duisburg and upper living, more exactly the prototype of this brake. The Brembo is noticeable by its very voluminoeses occurrence. The brake caliper, but also the plastic-encased Stahlflexbremsleitung with the injected connections and the parking brake cylinders, are not only noticeable by very a building method generously held. The brake cannot deny the relationship to the brakes of a motorcycle. The brake hose should not be after our information yet the final, which we would regret however. The parking brake cylinders are with prototypes, as different in the pictures recognizably, still. Both remarks of the parking brake cylinders have an enormous expansion tank. The adjusting bolt for adjusting the brake lever is simple and without tool attainable and adjustable. As said, the relationship leaves itself to the motorcycle did not abstreiten. As far the series moves away still from that prototypes, remains being waiting. Finally however the brake calipers are to be. With the two-piston brakes is noticeable above all the attachment of the brake wedges, those after the model with the motorcycle, how it should be different, by cotter pin is held. Thus annoying developing of the brake caliper is void for changing the vouchers. The punched 200mm brake disks is, even if we must repeat ourselves here, as swimming with the motorcycle stored. The processing of the individual components are very good and rather oversized as too weak laid out. The target group seems to be clearly defined by it: fast, heavy Bikes within the range Hardcorefreeride and Downhill. With a weight for the complete install-ready brake assembly, inclusive brake hoses and brake fluid, of approximately 1500 gram the Brembo is not a leichtgewicht. It is to be assumed however the standard model of the weight will move tendentious downward. The brake behavior of the Brembo is very good-naturedly and well to be dosed. The range of the slipping of the brake up to intended blocking is clearly defined. The fear, which would be brake by its immensely working exterior also brutally in the handling, has itself not confirmed. The relatively high hand forces, which are needed, were negatively remarkable, if one moves with the brake at the limit. Straight one with long departures particularly falls this in the weight. In addition, we assume here, which creates a revision of the parking brake cylinder remedy. The Brembo always obtained a good feeling of security during the test and exempted ears and nerves from annoying Quit and knarren, how one knows it from other considerable brakes. According to our information the series is to be limited, one whispers by 300 pieces per year, and the cost per single brake is to move around the 500 euro. Since the Brembo has the international standard, an assembly without Haareraufen is possible. Finally however the series remains waiting for and an official technical documentation. One is not however... the Brembo a shop guardian will now already surely become: -)

par 2 & 3:
This is the way Italian brake manufacturer Brembo, global No 1 producer of Car and Motorbike brake systems, is currently attracting attention. Since 1961 they develop and produce brake systems and accessories, and the success is tremendous. Besides the utilization of Brembo systems in serial/OEM production, their systems are also employed in NASCAR and Formula 1 races. Their announcement that they plan to produce MTB-brakes made bikers across the globe perk up their ears. Mtb-extreme was lucky enough to get a closer look at the brakes.

The Brembo stands out with its voluminous appearance. Not only the calipers, but also the plastic-covered steelflexbrakehose (dunno if that

last ones
The weight for the complete group lies at 1500 grams, which is quite solid. But it may be expected that the final version will weigh in lower than that. The brake works non-aggressive and is easy to modulate. The area between slight braking and stalling brakes is clearly defined. The fear that the brake
