LighTech 'Pro' Series Race rear sets


Internationally respected Italian parts and accessory designer LighTech has released a new line of "special rear sets" specifically developed for the track - developed in collaboration with well-known teams such as SpeedUp of Boscoscuro in Moto2 and GMT94 of Christophe Guyot, Yamaha Team in SuperSport and WorldSBK.  

These "pro" rearsets are designed only for those motorcycle models most commonly used for the track, such as R3, R1, Ducati Panigale and Ninja 400.


The basis of the development is simplicity - use of as few components as possible in order to reduce the possibility of something coming loose or detaching during the race - the fewer the number pf parts, the better the resistance to the intensity of race vibrations and stresses; durability is at a premium in demanding high performance environments.

In addition to the use of highly resistant materials, such as oversized bearings (ΓΈ24) for the gear levers, the new "pro" rearsets have the levers directly pivoted on the footrest to guarantee more neutral movements in any position.

Special attention has also been paid to the design of the heel guard, with a truly aggressive and ergonomic heel guard, the shape of which has been tested to avoid the annoying hooking of the boot while riding.
