Exclusieve hightech componenten voor weg en circuit.
Carbonfiber stamt uit de luchtvaartindustrie. Het bewijst zich
al jaren in de racerij door de hoge sterkte en het zeer lage gewicht
en nu ook bij BMW motorfietsen. BMW Motorrad past het toe in
componenten waarvoor een minimaal gewicht en maximale sterkte vereist zijn.
De M Performance Carbon wielen voor de BMW S 1000 RR zijn een
voorbeeld van een ideale toepassing. Een laag gewicht betekent immers
minder roterende massa, wat resulteert in verbeterde acceleratie en
handling, en verbeterd remgedrag. Kortom: de motorfiets wordt nog
wendbaarder en dynamischer met M Performance Carbon wielen. Bovendien
is het carbonfiber-oppervlak, dat met hoogglans blanke lak is
behandeld, prachtig om te zien door zijn diepe, donker glinsterende
structuur. De M Performance Carbon wielen voor de BMW S 1000 RR zijn
verkrijgbaar voor € 4.000 (incl. BTW). Bijgaand het volledige,
Engelstalige persbericht.
Munich, 19 August 2020. Carbon fibre – once developed
for the aerospace industry, this high-strength and super-light
material first established itself in racing and now also in BMW
motorcycles. BMW Motorrad uses it wherever minimum weight and maximum
strength are required.
The M Performance carbon fibre wheels for the BMW S 1000 RR are
an ideal area of application for the material, which is processed in a
very complex process using high-pressure furnaces, the so-called
autoclaves. The benefits are obvious. Less weight means lower
rotational masses leading not only to improved acceleration and
braking behaviour but also makes the bike easier to handle. In short:
The motorcycles become even more agile and dynamic. In addition, the
carbon fibre surface, which is coated with high-gloss clear lacquer,
is a real eye-catcher thanks to its deep black shimmering structure.
The M Performance carbon fibre wheels for the S 1000 RR are 1.7
kg lighter in total than the standard aluminium wheels, which were
already reduced in weight by 1.6 kg when the two models were
relaunched last year. All parts such as the 5 mm thick brake discs
(standard: 4.5 mm), sensor rings, wheel bearings and tyre pressure
control valves are included in the complete wheel set. The M
Performance carbon fibre wheels have been available since 1 August 2020.
