GALFER — frequently asked questions
Common questions, straight answers. No fluff.
- The wave profile dumps heat faster and scrapes mud off the pad face on every revolution. You get a more consistent lever feel on long descents and fewer glazed pads after a wet moto.
- Rubber lines balloon under hard lever pressure. That swell is what you feel as a spongy lever halfway down a steep rut. Braided stainless lines hold their shape, so the pressure you put in at the master cylinder reaches the caliper piston. The result is a sharper bite point and finer modulation when you're trailing the rear into an off-camber turn. The outer braid also resists rock strikes and roost damage better than rubber. For most riders it's the single biggest improvement you can make to brake feel.
- Sintered. The metal-bonded compound copes with water, sand and grit without losing bite, and pad life stays sensible across a long day in mixed conditions.
- Yes, if the threads and heads are clean. Replace any that look stretched or rounded. Use threadlock and torque to the workshop manual spec — rotor bolts back out fast if they're left dry.
- Bedding lays an even transfer layer on the rotor face. Do ten to fifteen progressive stops from around 30 mph, easing off before the bike comes to rest. Follow with ten harder stops from a higher speed, building pressure each time. Let the brakes cool fully before the next session. Skip this and the pads glaze, the rotor picks up uneven deposits, and you live with squeal and a soft bite for the life of the pad.
- Oversized kits ship with the caliper relocation bracket needed for the larger diameter. The extra leverage and cooling surface give you noticeably more stopping power, which suits riders running heavy gear or long descents at pace.
