Shimano Linear Response Disc Brake System
Recently we conducted testing with world
champion caliber pros Nicolas Vouilloz,
Brian Lopes and Mike King to confirm our
disc brake design priorities.
As our testing confirmed, the highest
priority is not "Power". One of the most
important things that a disc brake needs
for severe off-road conditions is a highly
modulated feeling of control. The brake
must be able to provide a balance of speed
control as well as strong stopping power
when quick deceleration or stops are
needed. Our engineer's development and
effort is in creating and improving
modulation and control. It is "Linear
Response Disc Brake System".
