Lyndall Brakes Reinforces U.S.-Made Rotor Production

Lyndall Brakes reaffirms U.S. manufacturing of motorcycle rotors and wheels, offering a lifetime rotor warpage guarantee and lightweight Bow-Tie Cut and Monolithic forged designs.

Lyndall Brakes, based in San Marcos, Texas, has reaffirmed its commitment to domestic manufacturing of motorcycle brake and wheel components. The company designs, forges, machines, polishes, and finishes all products in the United States. CEO Paul Kittrell stated the company prioritizes premium materials and domestic craftsmanship across its full production process.

Highlights

  • Lyndall Brakes manufactures all brake and wheel components entirely in the U.S., from design through finishing.
  • The company offers a lifetime warranty against rotor warpage when its rotors are paired with Lyndall brake pads.
  • Its “Bow-Tie Cut” rotors weigh just over two pounds each, ranking among the lightest steel rotors on the market.
  • Lyndall has introduced a one-piece forged Monolithic wheel designed as a direct fit for Harley-Davidson models.

Lifetime Rotor Warpage Guarantee

Lyndall Brakes is the only brake manufacturer to offer a lifetime guarantee against rotor warpage. The warranty applies when Lyndall rotors are used with the company’s own brake pads. The company attributes rotor durability to proprietary designs, material selection, and controlled manufacturing processes.

Bow-Tie Cut Rotor Design

The company’s “Bow-Tie Cut” rotor is one of its most recognized products. Each rotor weighs just over two pounds, placing it among the lightest steel rotors available. Reduced rotating mass is designed to improve throttle response, acceleration, handling, and braking performance. The design aims to deliver greater control and a more responsive ride.

Monolithic Forged Wheels

Lyndall Brakes has also introduced what it describes as the first one-piece forged Monolithic wheel manufactured entirely in the U.S. The wheels are engineered as plug-and-play replacements for Harley-Davidson motorcycles. The single-piece construction is intended to provide strength, precision, and weight savings while simplifying installation.
