Ashima sent along a ordered of their newborn 2012 lightweight rotors for testing to coexist with its creation launch at the metropolis Bike Week, which is attractive locate in metropolis Taiwan this week. Ashima has been making some rattling trick lightweight rotors for quite some time, and I hit utilised their AiRotor creation since it was in its beta stage. In candid comparability to the AiRotor, the newborn rotors are 20% lighter, hit large cutouts and a more wavy and undulating pattern, and the struts are steeper and hit been additional bracing.
The armature look leaner, and the 160mm edition weighs most the aforementioned as the AiRotor 140mm version, and effort close the the uber coefficient weenie Scrub rotors. No articulate on their name, release date or pricing, but they should be rattling affordable.
Measured Specs (160mm):
- AiRotor – 84.2 grams
- New Rotor – 66.6 grams
I hit yet to test the rotors, so I can’t interpret on how the cutouts, newborn ornament and impaired braking surface module impact in actual world riding? I adopt that they’ll impact pretty well, since the histrion Moore, the specializer and guru behind the Ashima braking products, tests them to extremity levels and pushes their family “without limits.” I am ease fascinated to wager their rattling trick Matrix armature when it’s eventually released.
The Matrix performs the aforementioned variety of trickery as the Shimano ICE system, combine poise and metal together, using apiece of their unequalled properties to attain a well performing rotor. The latest iteration has crimping to stop the poise braking surface and metal traveler together, and may hit a retrofitted impressible follower between the hub and rotor, to provide a diminutive cooling effect.
