Spanish brakes specialist Galfer says it is in production, shipping and ready to return to the track just as soon as possible.
"The difficult historical and economic moment we find ourselves in as a result of COVID-19 is forcing the international two-wheel vehicle industry to take on the most difficult challenge in its history. It also compels us to deploy all the resources possible to make people aware of the vital importance of two-wheel vehicles at this time.
"Our restart anthem is #BACKTOBRAKE - it reflects our determination to return to pre-pandemic times just as soon as we can do so safely. All of those in the motorcycle industry who live on the passion and adrenaline that only our sport can provide us with are eager to get back on our two-wheelers (whether engine-driven, electric or pedal-powered) and we want this to make a difference both ethically, by ensuring compliance with the most basic rules of social distancing, and ecologically, by using a healthier and more sustainable way of getting around.
"The use of two-wheel vehicles (motorcycles and bicycles) has many advantages over four-wheelers and public transport, including:
- Safer and more hygienic means of transport in terms of virus spread, since it is easier to maintain a safe distance between people and you avoid the mass use of public transport.
- Less traffic congestion in big cities and reduced CO2 emissions.
- More efficient means of transport thanks to shorter travel times, low energy consumption and less space required for parking.
"In a market such as Europe, the world leader in the manufacture of mopeds, motorcycles and accessories for two-wheeled vehicles, the aim of our #BACKTOBRAKE campaign is to spread a message of positivity and to invite people to put their two-wheelers to use again.
"The campaign is aimed at the large audience of user enthusiasts, fans, professional racers and our brand ambassadors. Today the world of cycling and motorcycling can, and must, become a collective symbol of the international restart. It is a challenge that we here at Galfer are ready to take on to play our part in".
