Common questions
Are these pads organic or sintered?
These are organic aramid fiber composite pads. Organic pads are known for providing lower rotor wear and quieter braking compared to sintered options, making them ideal for riders who prioritize comfort and rotor longevity.
Will these pads cause damage to my rotors?
No, organic pads have low rotor assault characteristics, meaning they are designed to be gentler on your brake discs. They are especially recommended for use with pro-polished rotors to minimize scoring and wear.
Do these brake pads require a break-in period?
Yes, like all new brake pads, a proper break-in procedure is essential. This involves a series of gradual stops to allow the pad material to properly seat against the rotor, ensuring optimal performance and preventing glazing.
