Motorcycle and Scooter Brake Calipers

Brake calipers are essential components of the braking system of motorcycles and scooters, directly impacting the vehicle's safety and performance. There are different types of calipers, each with specific characteristics:

  • Axial calipers : Mounted parallel to the brake disc, they are common on production vehicles.

  • Radial calipers : Offer greater rigidity and a more precise response, often used on sports bikes.

  • Fixed calipers : Equipped with pistons on both sides of the disc, they ensure more uniform braking.

  • Floating calipers : Lighter and simpler, with pistons on one side only, suitable for scooters and light motorcycles.

To choose the most suitable brake caliper for your vehicle, it is important to consider the type of use (urban, sport, touring), the specific model of the motorcycle or scooter and the required technical characteristics.
