Discover the world of high-end Beringer brakes
Since 1985, Beringer has embodied excellence in motorcycle braking systems. Founded by Gilbert Beringer, a motorcycle enthusiast and sidecar road rally driver, the company has evolved to become a recognized leader in the braking industry. Discover how Beringer went from manufacturing sidecars to creating high-performance brakes.
The Beringer Story: a passion for performance
Beringer's story began in 1985 in Châtelneuf, when Gilbert Beringer decided to manufacture wheels and swingarm forks for his sidecars. In 1989, the company became an SARL (limited liability company) and Gilbert Beringer began manufacturing complete sidecars based on various motorcycle brands (Moto Guzzi, Ducati, Yamaha, Honda, Triumph, and BMW). Winning two French road rally championships in the sidecar category, Gilbert and Véronique Beringer quickly gained notoriety.
In 1990, facing Brembo's monopoly in the motorcycle braking market, Beringer developed its own cast iron discs. Testing and development were carried out in collaboration with theCETIMof Saint-Étienne. In 1993, the decision was made to focus exclusively on braking systems, marking the beginning of the Beringer range of discs and calipers.
Beringer's commitment to competition: a Success Story
Gilbert and Véronique Beringer's involvement in the French sidecar road rally championship led to two championship titles in 1990 and 1991. At the same time, Beringer expanded its expertise by manufacturing brake calipers for Formula 1, equipping teams such as Ferrari and Prost Grand Prix. This collaboration allowed Beringer to distinguish itself as a trusted player in the high-performance braking field, both on two wheels and four.

FAQ - Answers to your questions about Beringer parts
Do I need to make modifications to my motorcycle to install Beringer parts?
No, Beringer products are designed for direct replacement installation, without requiring modifications. You can improve your motorcycle's performance without compromising its integrity.
How do I choose between cast iron and stainless steel discs?
Opt for stainless steel discs for everyday use and cast iron discs for more sporty riding. This way, you optimize your braking according to your driving habits.
Why use only DOT 4 brake fluid?
Using a brake fluid other than DOT 4 risks causing premature wear of the seals of Beringer master cylinders and calipers. It is strongly recommended to prioritize the exclusive use of DOT 4 brake fluid. This preserves the durability and optimal performance of your Beringer braking components.
How do I choose the lever size?
The choice of lever size depends on your motorcycle type and your ergonomic preferences. Select from different lever lengths for a personalized riding experience.
