Description
A pair of kevlar compound brake pads. Designed for ultimate power and sharp bite from cold, our Kevlar compound is designed with UK riding conditions in mind. We do not recommend this compound for brake dragging alpine descents as they do not fade with heat and will rapidly wear flimsy rotors which can't stand the heat. Racers will love this compound!

Really Impressed
Posted on 21 February 2017 by K. Purvis
Got a set for my cannondale road bike with shimano discs. Bedding in I just did what I've done in the past with shimano and so far I'm very impressed work just as well if not better as the ice tech they replaced. Might try the finned ones next but for £7.99 these pads with your money back if you don't like it's a no brainer.. -

Bought a 4 pack. They started off well, with good bite and power, but after one month's riding;- 600kms and 4000m descent later, the rear pads had begun to disintegrate on the edge. In between I rode my old bike with (superb)SLX brakes/genuine pads. When I got back on the new bike I just had to change front and rear for the second set as it felt ridiculously underbraked. Will try the Superstar -

The Hope pads always felt inconsistent - one would bite nicely while the other would just feel crap and the squealing they'd make in the wet!! These SS Kevlar pads have been awesome! Very consistent performance, virtually no squealing (even when wet), great feel with a nice solid 'bite'. Will defo get the
