Yesterday we received the front brake calipers for the M210. They are last generation Brembo calipers, aluminium/lithium cnc machined from a solid block (if you look at the photo in big size you can see the machining grooves).
When you take them in your hand you really appreciate how light they are. And when you look at them for a while words like “piece of art” or “piece of jewerly” come to your mind.
In short, if we don’t achieve good lap times it won’t be because the brakes.. 🙂
I want to say thank you to Yann Demazieres, the boss of Totimport (one of our main technical sponsors) for believing in our project and for supporting us to make it true.
Totimport provides us with a lot of the components we use in our bike (like brakes, clip-ons, footrests, levers, bike stands, etc) and Yann always looks for the way of achieving the exact component we need in a really short time. It is a pleasure to work with people like him.
I really like the new Blog header on your website. Do you have a time line for the development? Do you hope to race this year?
Hi Charlie, yes we have a timeline, we will start testing in one month, and if we don’t have big problems we want to race at least the 2 last rounds of the season in the CEV (Spanish Championship).
