The Ashima Sintered Pads are designed for mountain bikers and performance-oriented cyclists who require reliable, consistent braking power in demanding environments. These pads excel in high-temperature scenarios and wet weather conditions where traditional pads might fade or lose grip; however, they require a proper bedding-in period to reach their full braking potential.

Yes, bedding-in is essential. Perform 10-15 moderate stops from 15mph to 5mph to transfer a layer of pad material to the rotor.
Yes, these pads are fully compatible with the SRAM Level T series.
These pads are compatible with stainless steel rotors, but ensure your rotor is not below the manufacturer's minimum thickness.
Sintered pads contain metallic compounds that are inherently louder than organic resin pads, especially when cold or damp.
Longevity depends on terrain and riding style, but sintered pads generally last 2-3 times longer than organic alternatives in harsh conditions.
Perform the bedding-in procedure on a safe, flat surface by braking firmly from moderate speeds several times.
Check for oil contamination on the rotor. Clean with isopropyl alcohol and a clean rag, then re-bed the pads.
To install, first remove your wheel and pull the old pads from the caliper. Ensure the piston surfaces are clean before inserting the new Ashima Sintered Pads.
Compatibility includes:
Care instructions involve checking rotor thickness periodically, as sintered pads can cause faster wear on thin or worn rotors. Always keep oil and lubricants far away from the rotor and pad surface, as contamination will permanently ruin the brake performance.
