⚠️ Risk

The product poses a risk of injuries because in isolated cases on bikes equipped with Hawk brake pads mounted in the Brembo front brake system, the backing plate becomes de-bonded from the friction plate due to corrosion. This can cause of an accident due to reduction of the braking ability of the vehicle.
