Technologies
Carbotecture® SL
The carbon fiber is extremely light, resistant to impacts, mistreatment-proof at the same time it is able to guarantee the best performance in terms of resistance and durability both in cycling and motorcycling. There is no better material to meet the ever-increasing demand for brakes capable of offering the highest technologies available on the market.
Carbolay
Carbolay® is a material obtained with a fully automated process. Through a textile processing, the carbon fibers are positioned according to the load they will bear and impregnated with resin. In this way, ergonomic and aesthetically pleasing Carbolay® brake levers can be produced, while at the same time ensuring optimal transmission of finger strength thanks to the high rigidity and low weight of the components.
MagnetiXchange
The magnetic pistons are the perfect complement to the MV calipers, ensuring an easy and quick replacement of the pads once worn.
Command Configuration
