Braking That Defines Championships
Galfer’s Disc Shark® (HW) rotors excel in dry conditions thanks to superior cooling and wear resistance, while W Wave (RW) rotors dominate in wet terrain. Paired with Racing G1396R sintered pads, the system offers powerful, precise, and easily modulated braking tailored to the rigors of EnduroGP.
Once again, Galfer proves that championships are won in the braking zone.
