Absolute Black GRAPHENpads brake pads Shimano/Tektro

Description

GRAPHENpads by Absolute Black are a new innovation in the field of brake pads. A new era of confidence and consistent braking power is here. These pads set an entirely new standard in the industry of brake pads due to a completely new friction compound, which uses specially modified graphene instead of toxic copper.

The brake pads with Graphene compound are usable in all weather conditions.

An important element for the optimal performance of brake pads is maintaining their lower temperature, ideally below 400°C. The more the pads heat up, the faster they fade, which means they lose the ability to reliably slow down when needed.

Ideal brake pads must have predictable and consistent performance both in the initial engagement and during longer braking. After three years of developing the GRAPHENpads, Absolute Black is confident that they have achieved such pads.

These are the first pads on the market containing specially modified graphene in their friction compound, which significantly enhances braking performance, durability, and heat transfer to the backing plate.

They are thus the first pads to eliminate the use of very toxic copper for water and other organisms. Its use is planned to be banned in pads within several years.

The GRAPHENpads by Absolute Black are manufactured in the EU, offering better modulation, greater confidence, and faster stopping in all circumstances. They are very quiet, even on long descents. Not least, they reduce hand fatigue due to the significantly decreased force required on the brake levers.

Installing new pads: Follow the correct procedure for installing brake pads. Neglecting this step will lead to subpar experiences.

1. Remove the wheel and the old brake pads.

2. Clean the inside of the caliper and the rotor surface using brake cleaner (or alternatively use isopropyl alcohol).

3. Clean the brake disc and rotor surface. Gently push each piston back into the caliper body (for example, using a large screwdriver). Then, install the new pads and spring.

4. The most important part - While riding at about 20 km/h in a safe environment, brake evenly until the speed drops to walking pace. Repeat 20 times. Then, stop aggressively 10 times.
