EBC red disc brake pads

I've been using a set of these on the front with my Magura MT8/MTS brakes:

  • wear rate is good, pads are lasting well but I am using them with the Avid HSX rotors. Use with a rotor with larger cut-outs may result in a higher wear rate;
  • braking power and modulation is superb - similar feel to my Hygia SLPs with Discobrakes ceramic pro pads;
  • quieter and more powerful than the Magura 7.3 pads that the MTS brakes come with.
