The DISC 31 E SRAM / AVID brake pads offer outstanding brake power and easy modulation with minimal effort on the brake lever. They're long - lasting, perform great at high temperatures, and work consistently in both wet and dry conditions with an excellent pad life. Features: Long - lasting and high - endurance pad compound. Effortless modulation of braking force. Stable at high temperatures for consistent brake power. The organic formula is quiet and rotor - friendly. Fits: Avid (XO Trail, Elixir 9 Trail, Elixir 7 Trail) and SRAM (G2 Ultimate, RSC, Guide Ultimate, RSC, RS, R, T). Attention: Pads must be bedded in for optimal performance. First, on a gradual downhill, drag each brake for 20 - 30 seconds, alternating front and rear, and repeat 2 - 3 times. Then, on a steeper slope, engage and drag the brakes for 10 - 15 seconds, then increase lever pressure until the bike almost stops, and repeat 2 - 3 times. Pro tip: Swap front and rear pads and repeat the second step as the front pads heat up more. Caution: Let all parts cool before replacing or exchanging brake pads.

Using these SwissStop brake pads is straightforward. First, make sure to bed them in. On a gentle downhill, alternate between dragging the front and rear brakes for 20 - 30 seconds and repeat this 2 - 3 times. Then, on a steeper slope, engage the brakes for 10 - 15 seconds and increase pressure until the bike nearly stops. Do this 2 - 3 times. Since the front pads heat up more, swap the front and rear pads and repeat the steeper - slope step for best results. When it comes to maintenance, always let all parts cool down before you replace or exchange the brake pads. These pads are durable and work well in different weather conditions, but regular checks can ensure they're in good shape for a safe and smooth ride.
