EBC Brake Disc Brake Pads
Green Compound Pads
For cross country riding this is your best choice and is a British made organic pad compound that will not damage your discs. The pads have a medium lifetime and most types are supplied with slightly beefed up retraction springs to prevent pad drag. For downhill racing or longer life in wet and mud see either the RED or GOLD grades.
Features
- Designed for X-country riding
- Softer pad compound for better stopping
- Can be used on non-hardened or hardened discs
- This is a RESIN pad
Red Compound Pads
For downhill use the RED grade has a higher heat threshold but has the added benefit of not overheating the brakes with excessive heat transfer which would cause softening of your brake lines. Lifetime must be evaluated, these pads are designed for a few descents only, check wear after every ride to avoid running out of brakes. Supplied with heavy duty retraction springs in spring based systems.
Features
- High friction pad for downhill riding
- Handles more heat under heavy braking
- Minimum heat transfer to hydraulics
- Can be used on non hardened or hardened discs
- This is a RESIN pad
DavidVery good quality pads at a great price. Very quiet. Good to know they're made by a company with a history of manufacturing motor bike pads.
DavidI usually stick to Shimano xt finned, metallic pads (J04C). But...as they are not easy to get right now I went for these. After several months of use, I would rate these as 'OK' but they really don't match the performance of the Shimano pads. I found these difficult to bed in, and they are more noisy when damp / cold. More importantly, they lack the same stopping power and I have experienced noticable brake fade on longer descents - meaning more effort required to brake and sore hands/arms as a result. At least this has answered the question I had about whether Shimano pads were worth the extra coin....they are!
GuyThey work. Cheap. Not noisy. Can't comment on longevity yet.
Mr MeakesFor the money these are great pads and were delivered very quick
Mr MillsFits perfectly, quiet in use and with good bite and feel
Dom McCabegreat pads, do the job perfectly.
alexIve been using ebc for my motorbikes for years and wanted to try these, same quality and a good bite level once bedded in. Would use over sram again.
Mr GradwellGreat quality and stopping power for a good price.
andrewGood pads and a lot cheaper than shimano
Robin AnthonyStandard no fuss pads, decent performance and excellent value for money, especially with Merlin discount
JohnThese work very well. Slightly thicker than manufacturers own so rub slightly with the pistons pushed right back for the first few rides.
Mick MillerA good quality brake pad at a sensible price.
Mr MartinsExcelente qualidade e durabilidade.
Mr RocheGood quality replacements for the pads in my brakes. Great service from Merlin as usual delivery was very quick
LanceGood price.. good stopping power
VeloMBest pads for TRP/hrd brakes, no noise and last for a while
Mr KwintGood Pad. Quick bed in time and quiet
100weightExcellent value pads, Fitted to my CycloCross bike so they will be put to the test! But to early to give a verdict on longevity, hence 4 stars. (So far so good)
MattI purchased these organic pads in a last ditch attempt to stop brake sqeaul. The pads I previously used howled terribly, regardless of how they were bedded in. These pads though have been super quiet from the start and have lasted ok so far, including a few gritty rides in the peaks. They are very reasonably priced too so I will be buying more of these in the future.
CyclogopnikFantastic performance from these organic pads with Shimano stainless rotors, as well as the quietest I've tried. Pad life is decent, an absolute steal at this price.
Mr ArnoldGreat brake pads from my initial ride with them after my Shimano branded pads wore out. I am happy with them so far and looking forward to riding with them in the wet to see how they perform.
Miss WhiteleyEasy to fit and have done exactly what they are supposed to do- stop me. No issues
