SwissStop Disc RS / Rase pads deliver quiet yet powerful braking - the key characteristics are:
QUIET WET AND DRY
Disc RS provides extremely quiet operation in all environments. In wet, dry, snow and ice conditions the compound is noiseless.
ORGANIC COMPOUND
Smooth modulation and rotor friendly.
THIN BACKPLATE DESIGN
At 1.6mm thick the steel backplate saves weight over standard designs, yet provides the preferred thermal characteristics, strength and stability of steel.
Reduced thickness backplate is offset with additional friction material, providing longer pad service life.
BALANCED PERFORMANCE
Disc RS offers a highly balanced combination of brake performance, durability and incredibly low noise in all conditions. This finely tuned compound provides an ideal riding experience which is not found in other disc brake pads.
Performance Characteristics (out of 10 - 10 is best 1 is worst)
Note: These pads should be "conditioned" after installation and before riding - instructions are in the pack
Step 1. On a gradual downhill slope, drag each brake for 20-30 seconds, alternating between front and rear. Repeat 2-3 times.
Step 2. On a steeper slope, engage and drag the brakes for 10-15 seconds then increase lever pressure until the bike slows almost to a complete stop. Repeat 2-3 times.
Pro Tip: The front pads will have been heated more than the rear. To achieve optimal performance, exchange the front and rear pads then repeat Step 2.
CAUTION before replacing or exchanging brake pads it is essential to let all parts cool.
