BAER EradiSpeed +2, 14" Rear Brakes (1997-2012 Corvette)

Archimedes, a Greek mathematician c. 250 BC, was the first to explain the principle of the lever explaining how a large weight could be lifted by a relatively small weight by the use of a rigid lever and a properly positioned fulcrum.

The process was called leverage.

Archimedes, recognizing the power of leverage was quoted as saying, “Give me a place to stand and with a lever I will move the whole world.”

Larger diameter rotors generate more leverage (brake force / torque) in EradiSpeed+ 1 and +2 systems. EradiSpeed +1 and +2 applications include all of the same features and benefits of the EradiSpeed+, but in a larger diameter rotor.  The difference between the two: EradiSpeed +1 applications have a one piece rotor, while +2 applications have a two-piece design.
 
Weight benefits vary, but weight savings range between 6-10 lbs per rotor in front and 3-6 lbs rear. Rear EradiSpeed-Plus are not available for all applications, but in many cases Baer DecelaRotors™ provide an excellent choice and strong visual match.
