Jagwire Disc Brake Pads

While these pads are engineered with a specialized compound to handle the extra weight and speed of E-bikes, they are fully compatible with standard bikes that use the same brake caliper systems. You can certainly use them on a non-electric bike if you want increased durability and stopping power.

The semi-metallic compound strikes a balance between the quiet operation of organic pads and the high heat resistance of sintered pads. It provides consistent stopping power and modulation, which is essential for the heavier, faster nature of E-bikes.

These pads are specifically tuned for low braking noise, but like any semi-metallic pad, some noise is possible in extremely wet or gritty conditions. However, they are designed to perform reliably and quietly across a wide range of riding environments.

E-bikes exert significantly more force and heat on the braking system than traditional bikes. The steel backing plate provides superior structural integrity and heat dissipation, preventing the pad from warping or failing under the high-stress demands of electric-assist riding.

These pads are compatible with a wide range of popular brake systems from SRAM, Avid, Shimano, TRP, and Tektro. Before purchasing, check your current brake caliper model number to ensure it matches the specific shape and mounting style required for these pads.
