DP BRAKES DP500 Brake Pad – Sinter Series

Sintered pads designed for demanding riders, suitable for Trail/Adventure and Roadster environments. The copper alloy composition and sintering process ensure a sharp bite and good feel at the lever, right from the first kilometres after a quick bedding-in. The formulation aims for controlled wear and high thermal stability, providing progressive and consistent braking on varied roads.

These pads provide a responsive initial bite on both dry and wet surfaces and are designed to last longer than traditional organic compounds.
