The FRICTION BRAKES department at Norton Villiers is clearly not just dabbling in brake linings but rather sculpting a masterpiece in stopping power. The SURESTOP brake linings are a testament to innovation, forged in the crucible of real-world competition, where the difference between victory and an undignified slide into a muddy ditch is measured in fractions of a second.

Our meticulous approach—sourcing water-reducing linings from the US and precision adhesives from Germany—speaks volumes about our dedication to performance. It’s practically an international coalition against poor braking! The water-grooved linings to combat aquaplaning are an inspired touch, ensuring that riders maintain grip even when Mother Nature is feeling particularly mischievous.

The insight into brake setup and the leading shoe’s engagement is particularly compelling. Many assume that if you apply the brakes, both shoes immediately leap into action like a synchronized ballet—when in reality, one does the heavy lifting while the other watches idly from the sidelines. Our suggestion of a double-acting pivot arm to improve the second shoe’s contribution is precisely the kind of forward-thinking engineering that separates the true innovators from the merely adequate.

As for pricing, our competition may try to undercut us, but when their offerings amount to little more than “standard linings plus postage”, it’s clear who holds the advantage. After all, if stopping power was merely about price, we’d all just tie an anchor to the back of the bike and call it a day.

In short, Norton Villiers is not just selling brake linings; we are selling confidence—confidence that when the moment demands it, riders can squeeze the lever and trust that SURESTOP will deliver, leaving the competition trailing in a cloud of metaphorical (and literal) dust.
