Alcon, the internationally-renowned brake experts who are OE suppliers to
Audi, Bentley, JLR, Ariel, Noble etc, and whose products have assisted Sebastien
Loeb to eight consecutive World Rally Championship titles, have launched an
exciting new range of carbon ceramic brake kits for supercars such as the Nissan
GT-R.
The CCX (Carbon Ceramic Xtreme) disc material represents the latest in
lightweight brake technology and is half the mass of a similarly sized iron
disc. This alone results in significant improvements in vehicle performance and
agility. Extensively track tested by Alcon's in-house R&D department, the
product:
* Is fade free
* Has excellent initial bite from hot or cold
* Provides fearsome stopping power
* Features low wear rates of both discs and pads
The CCX discs are available in numerous sizes to suit customers' individual
requirements, while a number of standard supercar kits are in development and
one is now ready for sale.
