Standard Organic Brake Pads – Sup. To FA185R

Description

Although the Carbon X Brakes will not outlast a sintered copper brake pad it has the unique benefit of lower heat generation and transfer. When riding off road in fast dry conditions such a feature is a major benefit. In EBC’s years of listening to the faster riders they have seen cases where the rear brake rotor can be glowing red in night rides which shows just how hot trail braking can get a rotor. Stopping this getting to the bikes hydraulics is greatly assisted by using a Carbon based pad such as the X pad.

EBC Carbon X Brakes are coded red in paint finish and are equally happy on an ATV or a Moto X or Enduro bike and is also used in ATV Sport riding. However we caution riders using these pads in ATV use especially on rear rotors as wear life may be shorter than sintered pads originally installed in the original unit. With the lower price point compared to sintered, millions of riders still choose the carbon pads. For Street Enduro use such as the “Paris-Dakar” style DR bikes for road use EBC Carbon X Brakes are an ideal choice; they have been R 90 approved on many of such models in Europe and is safe for road use because of its ability to work effectively when hot.
