Rothewald & TRW
Since 1996, TRW and Rothewald have been meeting on equal terms when it comes to brake maintenance, renewal, and repair. This partnership-based collaboration has led to the development of tools such as the Rothewald brake piston retractor, which should not be missing from any professional motorcycle (and automotive) workshop today.
