Specifically engineered for Shimano Saint (BR-M820, BR-M810) and Zee (BR-M640) hydraulic brake systems, these pads are the definitive choice for riders who prioritize peak performance, powerful bite, and superior heat management when pushing their limits.Experience a new level of confidence as you drop into steep, technical descents. The EBC CFA493R is designed to provide exceptional friction and modulation, giving you the precise control needed to scrub speed instantly or feather the brakes through challenging rock gardens and tight switchbacks. The immediate and predictable response allows you to brake later and ride faster, knowing you have reliable stopping power on command.The primary challenge in downhill riding is managing the extreme temperatures generated by prolonged, heavy braking. For downhill use, the grade of these pads has a higher heat threshold but has the added benefit of not overheating the brakes with excessive heat transfer, which would cause softening of your brake lines. This critical feature ensures your brake lever feel remains firm and consistent from the top of the mountain to the bottom, preventing dangerous brake fade and ensuring your hydraulic system is protected from performance-degrading heat soak.These are specialized pads built for maximum performance, where every fraction of a second counts. As such, they are a high-wear item intended for focused use. These pads are designed for a few descents only, it is crucial to check wear after every ride to avoid running out of brakes. This professional-grade approach ensures you always have the freshest, most effective braking surface when performance matters most. To ensure optimal function and reliable piston return, they are supplied with heavy-duty retraction springs in spring-based systems.Attribute: Pads Features:- High friction pad for downhill riding- Handles more heat under heavy braking- Minimum heat transfer to hydraulics- Can be used on non-hardened or hardened discs- This is a RESIN pad Specifications:Dimensions:- 23.75x39.75x4mm. tradeinn Bikeinn
