It’s not often that a brand-new manufacturer of brake calipers appears in the UK. The last one was Great British Sportscars’ ATR Products division which joined their existing range of dampers and throttle bodies.

The latest comes from new company Stronghold Technologies and the man behind the venture needs no introduction as it’s Robin Hall, designer of the FBS Census, Edge Devil and the quite brilliant, Wells Vertige.

Never one to mess around, preferring to take the view ‘if it’s worth doing; do it right’ approach he’s even set up a new production facility in Dorset.

The company’s first product is a beautifully designed (unsurprisingly) and engineered two-pot billet aluminium caliper, although it will be joined by others in the coming months. These should be popular with TKC MAG and totalkitcar.com readers.

Stronghold is just part of the big plans for 2023 that Robin has. Stay tuned …  A website for Stronghold technologies is under build. In the meantime visit www.headengineering.co.uk ENDS.
