It is possible but strongly discouraged because by removing a hand from the handlebar (which is, after all, prohibited by the highway code), you risk jeopardising your own safety and that of the people and vehicles around you. Ĩ) How do you switch from one mode to another?

Basically, with the master cylinder set to “N”, the lever has a few mm of play before the braking action begins and that translates into a softer braking bite point. In the Normal setting, the braking bite point is set in such a way to guarantee a more gradual initial phase, therefore suitable for city traffic or poor grip conditions. With the new Corsa Corta, riders can tailor the braking system response that best meets their needs, habits and sensitivity. The new feature introduced with the 19RCS Corsa Corta consists precisely in the possibility for the rider to adapt the braking “bite point” to his or her own riding style and to the asphalt and weather conditions. It means having the possibility of adjusting the inactive braking phase, in other words, the movement of the lever as the rider squeezes it before reaching the point at which the braking system begins to generate pressure.Ĥ) What are the benefits of this type of adjustment for the rider? From the forward closing of the feed hole (effective stroke), the pressure in the braking circuit will increase until reaching the desired braking effect.ģ ) Exactly what does it mean to adjust the play? During this movement, the pressure in the braking circuit does not increase and, consequently, there will be no braking action. The play of a master cylinder consists in the movement of the piston from brake lever total release position to the closing of the master cylinder's reservoir feed hole.

Unlike the 19RCS, with the 19RCS CORSA CORTA, the rider can adjust, for the first time in the world, the brake master cylinder play. 1 ) What are the differences between the 19RCS and the 19RCS CORSA CORTA?
