Embodiment Construction

[0022] The brakes on modern bicycles have evolved to utilize technology from automotive braking systems, such as disc brakes. Disc brakes provide greater stopping power and deceleration control than the traditional rim and cable brakes used in the past. The front and / or rear brakes on a bicycle can be implemented as disc brakes.

[0023] Disc brakes consist of a disc and a caliper. Brake discs are typically coupled to and rotate with a hub on a bicycle wheel. The brake caliper is mounted to a fixed part of the bicycle next to the brake disc. When the caliper is actuated, the caliper moves one or more brake pads into engagement with the outer surface of the brake disc. The friction between the brake pads and the brake disc slows down the brake disc, which slows down the wheel and therefore the bike. Typically, the brake discs are constructed of a harder material than the brake pads so that any wear is directed towards the brake pads. Known brake discs are constructed from ...

Abstract

Example bicycle disc brake rotors are described herein. The example disc brake rotor described herein includes a core having a brake surface core portion and a single-piece brake track coupled to thebrake surface core portion. The brake track is constructed of stainless steel. The brake track includes a first track on a first side of the brake surface core portion, a second track on a second sideof the brake surface core portion, and a connecting portion extending over a peripheral edge of the brake surface core portion between the first and second tracks.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to bicycle components, and more particularly, to bicycle disc brake rotors. Background technique [0002] Bicycles and other two-wheeled vehicles often include disc brakes. Disc brakes consist of a disc and a caliper. Brake discs are usually mounted to the hubs on bicycle wheels. When the brake caliper is actuated, the caliper moves one or more brake pads into engagement with the brake disc, which slows the brake disc and thus slows the bicycle. Contents of the invention [0003] An example brake disc for a bicycle disclosed herein includes a core having a braking surface core and a one-piece brake track coupled to the braking surface core. The brake track is constructed of stainless steel. The braking track includes a first track on a first side of the braking surface core, a second track on a second side of the braking surface core, and a second track on the braking surface core between the first and sec...
