Winning with Galfer Racing CW1 brake discs
Endorsed by HRC in 2016 and winners of the Moto3 World Championship in 2017, Spanish manufacturer Galfer says its Racing CW1 brake discs have become “benchmarks for the sector”.
“From the smallest Moto4 class to Pre-Moto3, Moto3, SSP300, Moto2, SSP600, and even the Superbikes World Championship, the Galfer Racing CW1 brake discs are being used in many national and world championships”, the company says.
Indeed in 2017 it won the Moto3 World Cup with Joan Mir, the Supersport 300 World Cup with Marc GarcĂa and the Junior Moto3 World Cup with Dennis Foggia, achieving 25 victories and 44 podia. The brake discs also won the Supersport World Championship with Randy Krummenacher, and the Superbikes European Championship with Carmelo Morales. Many teams, including Estrella Galicia 0.0, Reale-Avintia, Gresini Racing, Leopard Racing, GoEleven or VR46 Junior, as well as Moto2 chassis manufacturers Suter and NTS, “trust their competition motorcycles to brake with the Galfer Racing CW1 brake discs”. Since 2017 the discs are also being used in the Red Bull Rookies Cup, along with Galfer sintered brake pads.
Laser-cut and made of high-carbon stainless steel, they undergo thermal stabilisation treatments before machining and grinding processes. They have steel centres and have been fully CNC- machined and finished with normal or hard anodised surfaces. Each CW1 disc is unique and identified with a serial number to offer 100% traceability - said to be the only discs in the world with an individual registration number.
They deliver a 15% weight reduction compared to round brake discs, “better heat dissipation thanks to Galfer’s Disc Wave design, improved braking power and better aesthetics”.
