𝐃𝐔𝐑𝐀𝐁𝐋𝐄 - The Corki Cycles disc brake pads are built to improve the power of your braking and ensure a longer life than other brake pads. It is inevitable that you will need to replace your pair of brake pads, but before you do so you want plenty of use. A pair of disc brake pads need to be durable, wear-resistant, and long-lasting. At Corki Cycles we know there is a science to disc brake pads.

𝐎𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 - When choosing new or replacement disc brake pads, the sizing/compatibility and material are most important. The brake pad material affects the use, wear, and life of the brake pads. At Corki Cycles we offer 4 different materials to match the different styles of riding.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐋 - Choose a resin/organic pad for casual riding, a semi-metallic pair of disc brake pads for more frequent use, and multi-metallic/sintered or copper brake pads for more aggressive riding. Multi-metallic/sintered or copper disc brake pads are perfect for more aggressive riding like downhill.

𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄 - When you're driving your car you want responsive and quick-reacting brakes. The same applies to your bicycle. The Corki Cycles disc brake pads are the perfect thickness for greater longevity and wear resistance. Yet for those needing split reaction breaking and greater responsiveness on the trails our disc brake pads perform every time.

𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐁𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘 - Before ordering check your current brake pads for compatibility, or check online to match the brand and make with the correct pads before buying. The Corki Cycles disc brake pad pair is compatible with: TRP Tektro, Shimano Deore Br-M575, M525, M515, T615, T675, M505, M495, M486, M485, M475, M465, M447, M446, M445, M416, M415, M395, M375, M315, M355, C601, and C501.

𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐏𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 - To install firstly remove your front and rear wheel. Remove the old, worn brake pads from the front and rear calipers. Check your pistons and do an overall caliper health check first. Check the quality of the brake cable or hydraulic hose before installing the new disc brake pads. Using a flat tool push the pistons back ready to install the new pads.

𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 -Insert the new brake pads correctly and secure them inside the caliper with the spring and pin. Re-attach your wheel and check the disc rotor positioning. Make sure there is no friction with the new brake pads when the brakes are not in use. If there is some friction or the disc rotor is hard to move you may need to file the pads very slightly. Alternatively, you can wait after a few rides for this to wear down.
