To celebrate its 60th anniversary, Brembo has created the ‘New G Sessanta’, a new concept inspired by the first-ever brake caliper for motorbikes produced by the company, embodying its new vision of the future of mobility.

 
The core of the concept lies in the revolutionary application of LED technology directly on the body of the caliper. This solution is adaptable to every application and type of caliper and enhances its form and function. The company says it can be both an interface, communicating directly with the user and an aesthetic choice, adapting to the user's tastes and preferences. The light takes Brembo's experience in the use of colour to a higher level, giving it new values.
 
The Brembo ‘New G Sessanta’ is a concept designed to be individualised, by using wireless technology, when the vehicle is at stop, to control the desired shade of light to express mood, enhance the style of the bike, or adapt it to the surroundings. The use of colour and light also has the potential to enable data and information to be sent on the conditions of the vehicle and the caliper itself, or even to help locate a parked vehicle by emitting a courtesy light.
 
The Brembo ‘New G Sessanta’ concept celebrates the design of the brand’s first ever brake caliper to be manufactured for motorbikes in 1972 and the name of its designer. Remaining true to the iconic lines that were the hallmark of that history-making first model, the concept reinterprets its body with a next-generation framework of dynamic solids and voids, which are still essential in their immediacy and formal consistency.
 
Just as the first 1972 Brembo caliper set the standard for all the models that followed, the ‘New G Sessanta’ concept represents Brembo’s vision of new features and solutions for brake calipers, building on its strategy to become a trusted solution provider and to continue setting the standard for future generations.
