Disc Shark® has been designed for the most demanding “gravity” DH and Enduro riders.  One of the disc’s unique characteristics is the inner fin that gives it its name: Disc Shark®. These 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.

Applications:
180mm: MTB - Enduro, E-BIKE

203mm: MTB - Enduro, DH & E-BIKE

223mm: MTB - DH, E-BIKE

Disc Type:
6 Bolt System

Features:

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.

Martin Maes (Orbea Fox Enduro Team rider): “Since testing the new Galfer Bike Disc Shark® I have experienced increased braking power with great stability at all times. The brake always responds the same way in any situation no matter how extreme and, combined with Galfer Pro brake pads, the breaking control has a fantastic feel. We even tried reducing the disc size I use on the Enduro bike to 180 mm to get a more progressive feel and, at the same time, reduce a bit of weight. Even with the 180-mm disc I haven’t had any fatigue or overheating issues at any point.”
