Obtaining high-quality brake discs such as those offered by NG Brakes is not an easy task. To achieve the excellent final result offered by the Catalan manufacturer, all types of parameters are studied and various highly demanding tests and trials are carried out.
When creating its brake discs, the company takes into account three key aspects: their size, their perforations and the discipline or segment to which the motorcycle for which they are being designed belongs. In this way, it guarantees that its products adapt perfectly to said mount and offer maximum safety and effectiveness in braking.
The three essential pillars in the manufacture of brake discs
1. Disk size
The size of the brake disc is crucial in determining the braking power of a motorcycle, but not all models can accommodate all types of diameters. For this reason, NG BRAKES follows a careful process when defining the diameter of its brake discs, taking into account the different characteristics of the different motorcycle models and the needs of users (as is the case with oversized discs).
An example is sports bikes, which generally have discs with a minimum diameter of 320 mm, while scooters, which do not require as much power when braking, normally use smaller discs of approximately 220 mm.
2. Disc perforations
Ventilation is another fundamental aspect to consider, especially when the disc is going to be used intensively. The harder the braking, the more heat will be generated, which can lead to the dreaded overheating.
For this reason, it is vitally important to pay special attention to the position, number and shape of the holes in these components. NG Brakes designs its perforated discs to allow for faster heat dissipation, preventing brake failure during the hardest and most repetitive braking, for riders who push their riding to the limit.
3. Discipline of use
The type of bike and the use it will be given also influence the design of the disc. Sport bikes, touring bikes, trail bikes and motocross bikes, among others, require different components that adapt to the specific needs of each specialty.
For example, to enter the circuit with a racing motorcycle, discs with high braking capacity and ventilation are needed, while for long trips it is essential to have components with great durability and good response in all conditions.
But in the case of off-road, it is better to have smaller discs, since this type of motorcycle requires softer braking. For this reason, NG Brakes considers it essential to know not only the characteristics of each model, but also the specific needs of each of the disciplines.
Producing the right brake disc for each motorcycle is a key objective of NG Brakes to improve safety and the experience on two wheels. Thus, it offers a wide range of discs designed with the highest technology and quality materials to meet the needs of each type of motorcycle and use.
