Brake pads HOPE V4, e-bike, purple

• HOPE E-bike pads suitable for V4 brake caliper models
• HOPE E-bike brake pads are specific pads designed especially for e-bikes
• HOPE E-bike brake pads are year-round and can be used in both dry and wet conditions
• the pads are designed for higher weight bikes and are excellent for their resistance to high temperatures, high braking performance and durability
• developed specifically for electric bicycles, which are characterized by high overall weight (including the rider) and wheel speed thanks to an electric motor that generates more power
• the use of original HOPE discs has also reduced vibrations during braking even under high loads
• HOPE E-bike pads are designed for E-bikes, Enduro, DH, as well as Tandem bikes

Thanks to their characteristics, these pads will serve you well all year round and deliver the same stable performance in all conditions. Don't expect extreme bite, but definitely no brake slippage either. Performance is very well modulated with these pads and will not let you down all year round.

HOPE brake pads are manufactured by GALFER. These are some of the best pads on the market for HOPE brakes.

Brake pads bedding process

To achieve maximum braking performance all newly fitted pads will need bedding in, this is an important process and should not be skipped. If pads are not bedded in the pad surface will become glazed, severely affecting the frictional properties of the pads, resulting in poor braking performance.

To bed in the pads, ride at a moderate speed, rolling down a gentle slope is perfect. Gently apply the brake without attempting to fully stop and then release. Let the bike get up to speed again, this allows time for cooling and prevents too much heat buildup, repeat several times. You should be able to feel the brake power increasing with every stop, end the procedure when you achieve good braking performance.

Sintered pads take longer to bed in than organic pads, a general rule is that the more durable the pad compound is, the longer it will take to bed in. The brake will reach its full potential after a few rides.

HOPE brake pads wear limit

The limit when HOPE pads are considered worn or require replacement with new pads is when they have less than 0.5mm of brake compound (excluding the backing base).

If the pads have less than the above amount of compound, we recommend replacing them immediately with new ones to avoid damage to the braking system or injury to the rider!
