  3. MAIN FEATURES


    1. 2-piece Disc Rotor


      1. The hat portion and the rubbing portion have been connected by a pin, spring and washer to suppress both the increase of air volume toward the spiral fin and the rotor deformation caused by heat, thus achieving superior fading performance.

      2. A hat portion made of aluminum is used to achieve weight reduction.
