What makes these brake pads low-dust?

The Z16 Evolution pads use a specific ceramic formula that is designed to produce less dust than traditional semi-metallic pads. This helps keep your wheels cleaner.

How do these pads ensure quiet braking?

They feature multi-layer rubberized shims and are chamfered and slotted. These design elements work together to absorb vibration and prevent the noise that can come from brake pad contact.

What does 'thermal scorched' mean for the break-in process?

The thermal scorching process pre-conditions the pad surface. This means you get consistent performance and stopping power much faster after installation, with less need for a lengthy break-in period.
