Overview
As the design of Motorcycles progressed over the last 10 years with machines getting lighter, more powerful and faster the demand on Motorcycle brakes has increased. Great technical forward movements such as 4 and 6 piston calipers and more recently the radial caliper have helped stop motorcycles faster but there has been, until now little progress made on brake rotors. There have been attempts to reduce weight on rotors, usually by drilling more holes in the rotor blade but always the OEM builders have used the boring ”Round Style“ rivet or drive button technology.
This outdated method of building rotors has now been consigned to the history books as EBC Brakes proudly announces the arrival of a new and patented design of drive button known as the SD System. SD stands for Square Drive which describes the button designs used in the new EBC X and XC rotors.
- Made from stainless steel and comes in circular disc
- Lightweight hole pattern construction
- Suitable for performance street use or racing
- The scraper slots remove any loose particles/debris as the pads bed in during early life after fitment and prevent rotor scoring
- They feature the new scraper slot system which has proved to be so successful in preventing early life rotor damage when bedding in new brakes
