Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Disc 27 E is straightforward due to the standard geometry of the backing plate. Always ensure your brake rotors are cleaned with isopropyl alcohol before installing new pads to prevent contamination.
Compatibility
These pads are compatible with many popular 4-piston calipers, including:
- Shimano: XTR (BR-M9120), XT (BR-M8120, BR-M8020), SLX (BR-M7120), DEORE (BR-M6120, BR-MT420), SAINT (BR-M820, BR-M810), ZEE (BR-M640), and BR-MT520.
- TRP: Quadiem, Quadiem SL, and Slate T4.
- Tektro: HD-M750, HD-M745, HD-M735, and HD-E725.
Care Instructions
To maximize the life of your pads, perform a proper 'bed-in' process by executing several controlled stops from moderate speed on a flat surface after installation. Avoid long, dragging stops during the first few rides to ensure the pad material transfers evenly onto the rotor surface.
