Abstract: A brake system for a vehicle is disclosed. The brake system includes a wheel hub, a brake disk, and a brake caliper. The wheel hub includes a hub and attachment posts. The hub defines a bore adapted to receive an axle of the vehicle. The attachment posts extend away from the hub adjacent to the bore. The attachment posts are singularly and integrally formed with the hub. The brake disk is disposed adjacent the wheel hub. The brake caliper includes a piston housing and a body. The piston housing is adapted to hold a piston. The piston housing defines mounting holes used to movably mount the brake caliper directly to the wheel hub at the attachment posts. The body is positioned radially outward of the brake disk. The piston housing and the body are integrally formed as a singular component.

Abstract: A rotor assembly for a disc brake system is provided with a central mounting section having a hub, a flange connected to a radially outer edge of the hub, and a first set of connection elements formed in or on the flange. The rotor assembly also includes an outer friction ring section including a radially inner flange and a second set of connection elements formed in or on the radially inner flange. The hub of the central mounting section is configured for connection to a wheel/axle of a vehicle. The outer friction ring section includes surfaces configured for contact with one or more brake pads of a caliper. Also, the first and second sets of connection elements are configured to be press fit together to connect the central mounting section with the outer friction ring section. The outer friction ring section may be implemented as attachable ring members.
