Galfer SHARK® brake disc

Galfer introduces the most complete MTB brake disc of our time with its new and innovative Shark Disc®. Through the innovative production process, using a laser cutter, the optimal design for the best possible performance is achieved. One of the most important unique features are the internal Shark Fins (cooling fins), which give the disc its name: Shark Disc®. The interaction of the fins with the many small perforations in the disc can reduce heat development while the outer wave design and the lateral openings allow for strong and consistent braking performance.

 
Features:

• Higher braking performance: the design of the Shark Disc® allows for braking with less pressure and thus less effort even under tiring conditions. This results in a 5-10% higher braking performance under normal conditions
• More stability: even under the most unfavorable temperature conditions (steep descents, high-speed tracks, high outside temperature, and high weight), the Shark Disc® maintains stable and consistent performance. The design is adapted to the different disc diameters to achieve the same stiffness
• Reduced heat development: the Shark Disc® drastically reduces the operating temperature – by 30% compared to similar brake discs on the market – and is made from a single piece to achieve better performance
• Reduced wear of brake pads: under common conditions, the lifespan of brake pads is 25 – 40% higher
• Lower weight: the Shark Disc® is lighter than most high-end brake discs on the market – thanks to the optimized design of both the rotor and the mount
• For e-bikes: integrated magnet mount for speed sensors in the brake disc
