Technologies

I-Spec EV

I-Spec EV creates a clean and action-optimized cockpit that provides greater focus and flexibility for a wider range of riders.

Benefits & Features

  • Wider adjustment range allows riders of various styles, preferences and body styles to adjust to the optimal position.
  • Ergonomic design, quicker lever access, and light operation enhance rider comfort and concentration. I-Spec EV increases brake lever rigidity by moving the brake clamp position inward to create an extra point of contact between the bar and the lever. This additional bracing drastically increases bike control and braking engagement while maintaining space between the clamp and support point for other handlebar accessories.

Servo Wave Action

When you pull a Servowave brake lever, initial pad travel is fast, so little lever movement is needed to bring the pads into contact with the rotor. The power multiplication factor then increases rapidly at the pad-to-disc contact so more of the lever stroke is used to apply greater braking power with improved control.
