Galfer is driving cycling innovation with the launch of two new ultra-lightweight aluminum caliper adapters, specifically designed for Flatmount brake systems on Road and Gravel bikes.
The SB006 and SB007 models combine cutting-edge performance with significant weight reduction and they are compatible with most Flatmount brake calipers on the market, making them a versatile solution for upgrades and replacements on next-generation road and gravel bikes.
The front SB006: Unprecedented Millimetric Precision
The front SB006 adapter marks a milestone as the first on the market to incorporate an innovative axial caliper adjustment system. This feature allows mechanics and riders to fine-tune the caliper position with millimetric precision. Crucially, once set, it maintains the exact configuration even after disassembling and reassembling the caliper, ensuring perfect alignment at all times.
Ultra-Lightweight and Functional Design
Both adapters have undergone a CNC perforation process that optimizes their weight without compromising strength. The weight reduction compared to stock adapters is notable:
- SB006 (Front): 1.5 grams lighter than the stock adapter.
- Use: Reversible front Flatmount adapter for 140 mm and 160 mm rotors.
- Weight: 9g (without bolts) / 21g (with 4 included bolts).
- SB007 (Rear): 5 grams lighter than the stock adapter.
- Use: Rear Flatmount adapter to convert from a 140 mm to a 160 mm rotor size.
- Weight: 9g (without bolts) / 13g (with 2 included bolts).
With their functional and ultra-lightweight design, Galfer’s new adapters offer a reliable, high-performance solution for modern Road and Gravel setups. They are the perfect choice for those seeking maximum performance with minimum weight.
The new Galfer SB006 and SB007 adapters have a retail price (excluding VAT) of €11.50 and will be available from official distributors starting this month in a black anodized finish with included bolts.
