Galfer has developed quite the reputation in the moto world for producing some of the nicest rotors available. Over the past few years you’ve seen them start to creep into the mtb world with some of the best athletes using their product.

These inner shark fins together with the rotor’s small internal round holes allow the operating temperature of the disc to be reduced, while the rotor’s exterior Wave design and lateral openings give it a powerful and homogeneous grip over the full contact area of the brake pad.

Every high-quality Galfer-patented Wave rotor is made from a proprietary mix of virgin high carbon 420 stainless steel laser cut (never stamped) double disc-parallel ground to assure perfect parallel flatness and heat treated to each specific application. Seamlessly replaces stock rotor. Full instructions provided along with any technical help needed! Precision made in our Galfer factory in Spain.

 

1.- GREATER BRAKING POWER: the Disc Shark®’s design means that less pressure is required in the brake line under the most fatiguing conditions, meaning less effort is required to brake. This translates into a 5-10% increase in braking power under normal conditions.

2.- MORE STABILITY: even in the least favourable conditions in terms of temperature (steep gradients, high speeds, high ambient temperature and large mass), the Disc Shark® maintains stable and consistent behaviour at all times. Its structural design adapts to the different disc diameters to achieve adequate stiffness for each model.

3.- LOWER OPERATING TEMPERATURE: the Disc Shark® drastically reduces the operating temperature – a 30% reduction compared to other high-end discs currently on the market – and is manufactured as one piece for greater strength.

4.- LONGER BRAKE PAD LIFE: under normal conditions brake pad life is increased by 25-40% with Disc Shark®.

 

5.- LIGHTER DISC: the Disc Shark® is lighter than most other high-end brake discs on the market thanks to the optimised design of both the rotor and the hub.
