Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these pads compatible with hydraulic disc brakes?

The CFA615 model is specifically engineered for Tektro Lyra and IOX.11 systems. Check your caliper model stamped on the housing to confirm compatibility.

Do I need to bed these pads in?

Yes, bedding in the pads is essential to ensure proper contact and optimal performance. Perform several controlled stops on a flat surface to seat the material.

Can I use these for downhill racing?

No, the Green organic compound is designed for cross-country and general use. For high-intensity downhill riding, a metallic or sintered compound is recommended.

Will these damage my rotors?

The organic resin compound is formulated to be rotor-friendly and typically causes less wear compared to harder metallic pads.

What is included in the box?

The kit includes one pair of brake pads and the necessary retraction springs for one caliper.

Troubleshooting

Brakes make a squealing noise

Clean the rotor with isopropyl alcohol to remove oil or residue, and ensure the pads are bedded-in correctly.

Excessive pad drag

Check that the retraction springs are seated correctly and ensure your caliper is properly centered over the rotor.

Reduced stopping power

Inspect pads for wear; if the friction material is thinner than 1mm, replace the pads immediately.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent rotor life due to the softer organic compound
  • Quiet braking performance with reduced squeal
  • Easy to install with included retraction springs
  • Effective stopping power for general cross-country and trekking use

Cons

  • Not suitable for extreme downhill or gravity racing
  • Organic material wears faster than metallic pads in mud or wet conditions
  • Limited to specific Tektro brake system compatibility

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These pads are specifically designed for Tektro Lyra and IOX.11 brake systems. Always verify your caliper model before installation.

Installation:

  1. Remove the wheel and extract the old brake pads using the manufacturer's specified tool.
  2. Clean the caliper interior using a dry, lint-free cloth to remove debris.
  3. Install the new EBC Green pads and attach the included retraction springs.
  4. Reinstall the wheel and perform a 'bedding-in' procedure by applying the brakes lightly on flat ground to align the pads with the rotor surface.

Care: Avoid using chemical degreasers on the brake pads as they can contaminate the organic compound. If the brakes feel 'mushy' or lose stopping power, check for glazing on the pad surface.
