WR500 Brake Pads Front EBC TT Carbon Graphite
[DBP040]

EBC are a world renowned brake manufacturer. For several years now this successful carbon graphite formula has been the choice of top enduro and moto-x riders for certain conditions around the world. The main advantage of this type of material is its lack of heat generation or conduction, which keeps both the rotor and caliper cool. Top Enduro and Hare Scrambles USA riders prefer this material for fast and dry riding conditions.  There may be cheaper pads, but do you really want cheap brakes?? Read the pad type explanation from EBC below.

These pads are supplied in pairs to suit one FRONT caliper on:

WR500 1991-1993

The EBC X or TT pad is coded RED in paint finish and is equally happy on a Moto X or Enduro bike.

We mentioned an old friend Malcolm Smith earlier and of course his name comes to mind when talking about Enduro riding as a multi time Gold medallist in the ISDE. We are proud to say that Malcolm along with other top names such as Randy Hawkins have been users of EBC carbon TT pads for many years.

Although the carbon pad will not outlast a sintered copper brake pad it has the unique benefit of lower heat generation and transfer. When riding off road in fast dry conditions such a feature is a major benefit. In our years of listening to the faster riders we have seen cases where the rear brake rotor can be glowing RED in night rides which shows just how hot trail braking can get a rotor. Stopping this getting to the bikes hydraulics is greatly assisted by using a Carbon based pad such as the TT pad.

Not only do they generate less heat, they transfer less heat.
