Formula Disc Brake Pads

These pads are designed to fit the Formula R1, One, Mega, RX, RO, C1, and Cura braking systems. Please verify your specific brake model before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.

Organic pads are known for their quiet operation and consistent, predictable bite. They typically require less break-in time than metallic pads and are gentler on your rotors, making them an excellent choice for general trail riding and commuting.

The aluminum backing plate significantly reduces the unsprung weight of your braking system compared to standard steel plates. While lighter, it remains structurally rigid enough to handle the heat and pressure generated during heavy braking.

While organic pads offer great modulation and power in dry conditions, they can wear down faster than metallic or sintered pads when exposed to grit, mud, and heavy rain. If you frequently ride in wet, abrasive environments, you may find yourself replacing them more often.

Yes, always clean your rotors with isopropyl alcohol before installing new pads to remove any old residue. Once installed, perform a proper bedding-in procedure—a series of controlled stops from moderate speed—to transfer a layer of pad material onto the rotor for optimal performance.
