Experience gained in World Superbike with Ducati and the Spanish Juan Borja driver, the Italian manufacturer D.C.R (De Cecco Racing) decided to commercialize its monobloc radial d�étrier model 4 pistons last cry. A little jewel thought prior to the competition, aujourd�hui accessible to fans of matos high technology.
As his compatriot and undisputed expert in braking, Brembo named j�ai, D.C.R opted for the clamp 4 pistons attention by the pilot of SBK and motoGP. 4 piston... Why not 6? In theory, a caliper 6 piston brakes better. Indeed, more it Pistons, more increases braking power. In reality, the n�est step necessarily more efficient. Pliers 6 pistons claiming the largest wafer surface, the heating is in fact more important. A rise in temperature, in addition to the decline in efficiency, reduces the longevity of the disc. Finally, more platelets are long, more work in bevel. Stopping distances are longer and the nearest blockade. In short, c�est the reason why the 6 pistons calipers are absent at the start of the Queen category and Superbike races.
Carved out of the mass, (i.e. not removable) monobloc radial l�étrier body is aluminium Ergal type. The result is without appeal and the quality of implementation is superb! L�Ergal is a more powerful alloy which has l�avantage to gain the weight and d�offrir maximum rigidity. He s�agit d�un radial caliper, it has therefore d�un system direct d�attaches fork that exploits the synergy between the caliper and the bottom of fork providing a better rigidity of all and optimal braking. Note qu�un fastening system radial allows l�adaptation several diameters of disks with the Dunnage. Another feature of the D.C.R, clamp it hosts platelets to the top by Carbone Lorraine. With high to low or high temperature performance, these pads sintered metal optimize braking power and guarantee the teeth.
This monoblock radial "Brembo style" s�adapte without modification on Italian Ducati and Aprilia machines. Marketed by PT Technologies brand, it will be soon available for the Japanese Suzuki GSX - R 750, 1000 and the Yamaha 1000 R1. For a D.C.R kit and nickel braking chrome of your carton, it take about 2000 euros. Special attention on the price since this resolutely high-tech piece is sold loan of 1000 euros cheaper qu�une Brembo high star ornament.
