Galfer Magura MT5/7 Compound

These pads are specifically designed for Magura's four-piston hydraulic calipers, such as the MT5 and MT7 series. They will not fit Magura's two-piston systems, so please verify your caliper model before purchasing.

The semi-metallic compound is engineered to offer a consistent bite in a wide range of conditions, including wet and muddy terrain. While they provide strong stopping power, you may notice slightly more noise in wet conditions compared to organic pads.

Yes, bedding in your new pads is essential for optimal performance and longevity. We recommend performing several controlled stops from moderate speed on a flat surface to properly transfer a layer of pad material onto the rotor.

The steel backing plate provides superior structural integrity and heat resistance compared to lighter materials. This ensures the pad maintains its shape and performance consistency during long, aggressive descents where heat buildup is significant.

Galfer pads are often chosen for their specific compound formulation, which many riders find offers a more aggressive initial bite and better modulation than standard stock pads. They are a popular upgrade if you feel your current setup lacks the precise feedback needed for technical riding.
