Pons to finish the season with J.Juan Thumbrakes

Pons Racing, one of the teams with a fighting chance at the Moto2 World Championship, will be sporting J.Juan Thumbrake systems from the Silverstone GP on. These thumb brakes have proven very succesful the last couple of years.

The new agreement will allow Aron Canet and Sergio García Dols to better control their rear brakes for the last 12 races. Our Thumbrake allows you to control your rear brake with your left thumb, without conflicting with your rear brake pedal. Sometimes, you tilt your bike to extreme angles, and you get your foot off the pedal, but the thumb can still control the rear brake.

Pons Racing, one of the leading teams in the championship, has been very willing to colaborate with us and improve with our system, which does not replace their current system, but is a complementary safety system for the pilots. With their support, the brake systems by the Catalan firm might improve quite a bit.

Sergio García Dols has raced with our systems since he started his career at the Spanish PreMoto3 Championship, now rebranded to ESBK, just like Aron Canet, who is going to try to win the championship in these last few races.

For Giuseppe Micheletti, “it’s an honor to be able to interact with a Moto2 team like Pons Racing, which is one of the championship’s most iconic teams. We are proud to be one of their technical sponsors”.

Edgar Pons said “everyone in Pons Racing is proud and happy to have J.Juan on their side. They come to us with valuable experience and we can help them improve and develope their products. Also, we celebrate the fact that two firms founded in Barcelona work together and share values at the box and beyond, which make them unstopable.”

Wuling, a car brand that steps into the motorbike market with J.Juan brakes

Wuling Motors, a Chinese company that manufactures cars and commercial vehicles, is entering the motorbike sector with its Serpol 501. A ruthless homage to the Honda CMX 500 Rebel.

According to the prestigious Greek magazin Bikeit, “in December 2022, Wuling filed for a motorbike production permit, and in late February 2023, they started showing off the motorbike that they finally introduced at the Beijing fair on May 24th and goes by the name Serpol 501.

It will very much remind you of the Honda CMX 500 Rebel, where there is also a 4-piston radial front caliper by J.Juan that is connected to ABS via a sensor ring.

With its 494cc and some 54 units of horsepower, there are already 48hp versions compatible with Euro 5. You might start seeing it around in Q4 2023.

The prestegious Indian automotion magazines Car and Bike cover the new CFMoto 450 NK in sweet-talk and place it above competing vehicles such as the Yamaha MT03, the Duke 390 or the BMW G310 R. Why? Because “The 450NK has premium components in it like J.Juan brakes that come in the form of a 4-piston front radial caliper and a 1-piston back radial caliper. Both the pistons and the master cylinders, also by the Barcelonian manufacturer, are coupled to the dual-channel ABS by means of a hydraulic system of braided stainless steel, also by J.Juan.”

Successful shift of J.Juan facilities

Successful shift of J.Juan facilities

J.Juan has relocated most of its production of high-quality stainless-steel brake hoses from its headquarters to its facility in St. Cugat. We did so in just a week without disrupting supply to any of our clients worldwide. Right now, our plant in St. Cugat (Barcelona) houses the production of both our braided stainless-steel brake hoses and our brake systems.

After 23 years working at full steam, time has come for the floor of our production plant at our headquarters in Gavà to be both reworked and improved as we expect increased production for the coming years.

With a revenue of 103 million euros in 2022, J.Juan keeps investing in its future as production increases and our brands J.Juan and Braktec expand.
