Hand position in using brakes, CRP Racing riderThe braking line represents in the world of motorcycle competition one of the key elements when the rider can make the difference.

Braking force is controlled by the rider, through the pressure applied to the brake handle. For this reason the “brake feel” needed by the rider is one of the most important aspects on the track.

The rider must be comfortable with the braking action to perform this task with great confidence.

CRP Racing, an Italian team that has been competing since 2007 in the Italian Road Racing Championship (CIV) and in the Honda Trophy develops racing motorcycles together with its technical staff.
In order to enhance the riders comfort and feel with the vehicle, CRP Racing in collaboration with CRP Technology has carried out research on brake lever with the application of Reverse Engineering. This involved scanning the hand shape of the rider when braking and in only a few days the engineering and manufacturing of a tailor-made brake lever for the rider was ready.
