Description

Brake pads are the single most important part of the bike, which determines how confidently you can descend. The key element to their optimum performance is to keep the temperature of the brake pads and the rotor as low as possible (ideally below 400 °C), especially on longer descends. The hotter the pads get, the faster they fade, which means they lose the ability to slow you down reliably when needed. Overheated pads lose braking consistency and behave differently each time you press the brake lever, which greatly diminishes your braking confidence, effectively making you ride much slower.

The ideal brake pad will have the same predictable braking power, initial braking bite and perfect modulation throughout a long descend. After 3 years of development, we believe that we have achieved just that with our GRAPHENpads®. The results of the machine tests and thermal imaging show that we were able to reduce disc pad and rotor temperature by up to 35% vs competitors and completely eliminate brake fading.

Rotors are heated repeatedly to high temperatures exceeding 500 °C, increasing the danger of softening of the rotor materials by tempering. Temper softening causes increase of wear and warping of the rotor and leads to reduced brake performance. For this reason, it is extremely important to evacuate heat from the rotor-pad interface as fast as possible.

Key features:

  • First pads on the market containing specially modified graphene in their friction compound, which greatly improves braking performance, durability and heat transfer to the backplate.
  • Thanks to the backplates being entirely covered in graphene heat dissipating coating, it was possible to achieve much greater heat transfer from the friction material to the backplate and at the same time, increase radiation of heat (IR spectrum) by over 20% (which is very significant).
  • To date, GRAPHENpads® are the only brake pads in the market that completely eliminate toxic copper, ahead of new regulations (copper brake dust is proven to be toxic to aquatic life hence new California regulation will ban use of copper from 2025).
  • Graphene in disc pad friction material prolongs the life of rotors by embedding graphene particles into micropores of the rotor braking surface.
  • They are produced in EU unlike majority of other pads on the market, which come from a single Taiwanese factory.

How to install:

Please bed the pads in for proper braking experience. This is CRUCIAL part of every brake pad installation. Neglecting this step will produce sub-par experience.

  1. Remove wheel and old brake pads.
  2. Use a brake cleaner to clean inside of the caliper and the rotor surface (alternatively, use isopropyl alcohol).
  3. Gently push each piston back into the caliper body (using for example big screwdriver). Then mount new pads and spring.
  4. Most important part - While riding at about 20 km/h (12 mph) in safe environment, apply brakes evenly until speed drops to walking pace. Repeat 20 times. Then stop 10 times aggressively.
