A Chinese manufacturer that champions race-derived development is seriously teaming up with legendary brake maker Brembo. That's no joke. If they're bringing technology honed in MotoGP and rally raid down into production bikes, braking performance is absolutely one area you can't compromise on. Supporting young rider development on top of that shows they're playing a long game.

Even calling it a joint development, it's a totally different story depending on whether it's just design or goes all the way to mass production.

Is this basically bringing race-proven experience down to the production bike?

CFMoto teaming up with Brembo — that would've been unthinkable just a few years ago.

Ten years ago it was treated as cheap and low-quality — things really can change.

If it's limited to mid-to-large displacement, I guess 250s still aren't covered.

Just teaming up with Brembo and already calling it premium over and over feels premature.
