Getting Brembo brakes really lands with spec nerds like me. How serious a bike's chassis is shows up directly in its braking system. A machine that can't just be dismissed with 'well, it's made in China' is coming soon. I'm already looking forward to comparing it against the old model.

CFMoto's already got insane value for money, and if the brakes get better too, I'd genuinely want one.

If they put Brembo brakes on, doesn't that kill their biggest weapon - being cheap? Prices will go up anyway.

Chinese makers are dead serious now - they'll probably threaten the Japanese brands before long.

They used to say the same thing about Korean cars, and now they're a real competitor - can't underestimate this.

Even bolting Brembo onto a CFMoto, whether the rest catches up is a separate question.

Even if just the brakes go premium, the frame and engine's reliability still comes into question.
