Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure your brake system is clean and free of debris before installation. Refer to your bicycle's or brake manufacturer's specific instructions for brake pad replacement. Proper bedding-in is crucial for optimal performance. This typically involves a series of moderate braking applications while riding to allow the pad material to evenly transfer to the rotor surface.
Compatibility: It is essential to verify compatibility with your specific brake model before purchasing. Consult the Sinter compatibility guide (link provided in product description) or your brake manufacturer's specifications to ensure these pads will fit your system correctly.
Care: Keep brake pads and rotors clean. Avoid contact with oils and lubricants, which can contaminate the pad surface and reduce braking effectiveness. If braking performance diminishes, inspect pads for wear and rotors for contamination. Clean rotors with a dedicated brake cleaner.
