SEATTLE – Sparta’s launched its Athena range of big brake kits with coverage for three popular off-road vehicles: Ford F150, Chevrolet Colorado, and Ford F150 Raptor.

Sparta Evolution plans to continue developing and adding new vehicle applications.

The kits include all necessary components to install and require no permanent modification for fitment . All kits include calipers, rotors, semi-metallic pads, stainless brake lines, performance brake fluid, caliper brackets and mounting hardware.

Kits are sold for front, or rear axle and require the use of 20-inch wheels to clear the significantly oversized 380mm brake rotors.

The Athena caliper incorporates many unique features and advantages into its design, such as a rigid monoblock body with Sparta’s Aero-vent lightened framework for increased airflow to lower overall braking temperatures that result in more consistent braking.

The Athena calipers are paired with Sparta’s true floating two-piece designed brake rotor that incorporates Sparta’s proprietary DCF96 internal vane structures for increased cooling and fewer hot spots that can cause erratic braking performance.

Externally, TW3 slotting has been utilized to help stabilize internal temperatures, as well as optimize pad deglazing and debris evacuation.

The calipers themselves are available individually for customized fitments, in a six-piston configuration with appropriate rotor rings as well.
