• LINKED BRAKING: With the DSR/X, we are introducing our first bike that features a linked braking system. Controlled by the integrated Bosch Advanced Stability Control System, it activates instantly upon sensing a loss of traction or any slippage. The system immediately applies the right amount of braking to the front and rear brakes simultaneously, providing added control when climbing or descending steep, loose terrain.
• BOSCH VEHICLE HOLD BRAKING: Vehicle Hold braking is engaged when you come to a stop on a steep slope by clamping the brake lever all the way down and releasing it. Serving as a temporary parking brake, it frees the rider to make any adjustments needed on a steep pitch. When the throttle is engaged braking automatically deactivates allowing for a smooth start on a steep incline. Additionally, Bosch Vehicle Hold Braking is auto-canceling and will release brake pressure after one minute has passed.
• GATES CARBON BELT DRIVE: Zero has collaborated with Gates Carbon Belt Drive, the leader in belt-driven powersport technologies, to develop a wholly belt system for the DSR/X. Wider, stronger, and more capable than ever, the belt drive system for the DSR/X is designed with larger, ported sprockets to reduce bend angles and eliminate debris from the drive train. This combination results in a more durable drive system that is less susceptible to the rigors of the terrain riders will throw at it than ever before.
