Beringer New Inboard Braking System

Published by Cyril Huze December 3rd, 2008 in Brakes, Customs and Editorial.

Created in 1985, Beringer (France) is a leader specialist of high performance and innovative braking systems for motorcycles, quads, automotive and aircraft. Smaller than its main competitor Brembo, Gilbert & Veronique Beringer are probably some of the most creative people in the braking business. New evidence of their skills is this prototype inboard braking system being now tested by a race competition team. They took their own twin-engine airplane brakes and scaled it down to fit a supermoto. And it works like magic with a weight saving of 500 g (> 1 pound), 3 times less gyroscopic inertia, and a power increase of 20%, eliminating the torsional forces created by a single disc while offering a system virtually impervious to crashes. And I will add that this inboard braking system looks extremely good and can be used on any custom built motorcycle. Beringer Brakes.

    This Beringer product seems to have better research and development to it than what came from the 360 brake. I am sure that part of their expertise comes from their association with the aircraft industry.

    i have used their brakes on my super moto bikes, they are of the highest quality and innovation…i like this brake becuase you can crash! and not bend a rotor or grind your caliper down on a long slide, also you can trail brake (ride the brake into and through the entrance of a corner) without the added reaction of the large rotor trying to fight your direction change..awesome innovation and would look cool on an old school bike.

    I know Beringer through friends. Top notch brakes, especially for racing. I guess, any bike would benefit. Great look.

    Great idea. will be go down well with endurance racing guys due to the quick release nature of the design.

    Several years ago GMA made a rear Sprocket/Brake system with the aircraft style rotor/caliper set up. Seemed to work well.

    Over & Out,
