As much as many bikers love to get their adrenaline pumping by being focused on how fast they can go and how hard they can ride, having good quality brakes is always going to be something that you heavily rely on.
Everyone will know, whether a racer or a casual commuter, that a situation can change in the blink of an eye, and having a good set of pads can make the world of difference to keeping you out of trouble. There’s even more importance on this for bikers than for car drivers, as that’s one of the only safety features we have to rely on, not too many bikes are equipped with airbags!
Knowing this, and knowing that even if you shouldn’t have to use them, they’re there if you need them, can give you a lot more confidence when riding safely. This is why on our website you can only find high specification brakes that suit the purpose at hand. There’s no space for ‘economy’ when we’re talking about saving lives after all!
Our HEL Brake Lines range is what the BSB Doodson race team use to deliver the best stopping power possible, because the quicker you can stop, the longer you can ride faster into the corners meaning a quicker race.
Although this has benefits in racing situations, it’s on the road where having good quality brakes can pay dividends. We all know when riding on the motorways that we are forced to think for every other driver on the road, because in their air-conditioned, radio-filled, lounge-esque car environment the concentration of even the most fastidious of drivers can sometimes lapse. And you don’t want to be caught up in the middle of that when it happens. Being able to reduce your speed quickly and safely in the blink of an eye can make all the difference, and it’s for this reason that we take such a tremendous amount of pride in the brakes we stock here at MotorcycleRaceParts.
EBC braking systems will show their greatest advantages when braking from higher speeds, or when tasked with repeated heavy braking. The increased braking torque provides for maximum deceleration at speed, and the ability to absorb and quickly dissipate the intense heat generated during repeated braking insures that the braking system will perform at the same high level each time. There’s no greater threat than to have a braking system that fades quickly under use – meaning that you anticipate your brakes to behave in a certain way, and then when you use them, you get something very different!
