Stunt and Precision: When Adrenaline Is Controlled with Confidence
Events
Performing stunt riding requires a great deal of self-confidence, but above all, absolute trust in your brakes. It must be a perfect combination of professionalism and safety in order to carry out this kind of high-risk performance. Edu Rodríguez explains the importance of having the best braking systems.
“Knowing that I have NG Brakes behind me gives me total confidence: they always respond the same way, with no fade and no loss of performance.”
At NG Brakes, the goal is to support the different disciplines that make up motorsport, two wheels and speed. In fact, since 1997 NG Brakes has been designing and manufacturing high-performance brake discs that are now present in more than 30 countries. In this way, the stunt rider explains that the reliability of NG Brakes allows him to raise the level of his shows and push himself even further. He also stresses that brakes are everything. In stunt riding, it’s not just about accelerating or lifting the bike, but about being able to control it in any situation.
One essential requirement for stunt riding is having brakes capable of responding to all kinds of situations. At NG Brakes, they manufacture brakes that withstand high temperatures, capable of enduring wear and constant heavy braking.
“I work with high-performance brakes, far beyond what standard road bikes are equipped with. I also adapt the braking system depending on the type of bike and the stunt,” Edu explains about his performances.
Edu also highlights the importance of the rear brake, which plays a fundamental role in maintaining balance while performing a wheelie. He shares an anecdote explaining that:
“Having the rear brake on the handlebar allows me instant access to it, especially in tricks where my foot isn’t on the pedal.”
Stunt riding is a visual spectacle, but also a demonstration of technical precision. And that’s where NG Brakes becomes the perfect ally for those who push their bikes to the limit.
