Brake pads HOPE | X2 | all-conditions | red

• HOPE All-conditions pads suitable for HOPE 2-piston brake caliper models (see list below)
• HOPE All-conditions brake pads are designed for dry, but also for wet or mud
• HOPE All-conditions pads deliver stable performance and are the most versatile HOPE pad model for year-round use
• the use of original HOPE discs also reduces vibrations during braking even under high loads

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.
