Sticha presents Hope-Disc with air cooling

Six pistons, two brake discs - and that per wheel: Bob Sticha is setting a new standard for downhill stoppers. Sticha has given the already snappy "Mono 6-Ti" from British premium manufacturer Hope a rotor consisting of an aluminum carrier on which two interconnected brake discs are mounted.

The resulting air cooling of the brake discs, which is already well established in the automotive and motorcycle business, significantly improves heat dissipation and should prove particularly advantageous on long, hard descents. Nobody needs to worry about the durability of the connection between the brake discs either, as it remains absolutely stable even at temperatures of well over 1000 degrees. However, the visually striking double rotor requires specially adapted brake callipers: Because the disc is significantly wider, the pistons need to be shortened accordingly. Anyone who wants to ride with air-cooled discs in the future should therefore order a complete set with brake calipers and rotors from the Swiss Hope importer Bob Sticha.
