Reds Racing have announced a new update for their 3 shoes ‘one touch’ effortless clutch system, called Reds Three 2.0. The development of the new version has affected the clutch shoes 7075 T6 which have been completely redesigned in order to improve the engine performance at low RPM and increase clutch life. The new shoes are shorter, lighter and designed for engagement during the entire shoe stroke and are less sensitive to wear and as such life time is increased. The clutch engages at higher RPM range, resulting in more controllable power during acceleration, while still maintaining good handling and performance on jumps. The clutch can be adjusted thanks to the traditional combination of different springs and shoes. Three different types of springs are available, with a diameter of 0.9 – 1.0 – 1.1 mm, and two different types of shoes, the traditional aluminium 7075 shoes and the optional ones in carbon.
