Construction & Design

The GD Sport rotors feature a robust construction with a high-quality cast iron core that ensures strength and durability. The wide aperture slots are precisely machined to maximize airflow and cooling efficiency, helping to maintain optimal brake temperatures during extended use.

The black e-coating is applied through a thermic process, providing a durable, corrosion-resistant finish that maintains its appearance even in harsh road conditions.
