The Shimano BR-M375, M415-M495, M515, M525, M575, C501, C601, C607, and the Tektro Auriga (pro-(e-)comp), Draco, Orion, and Aquila are all disc brake pads suitable for various bicycles. These pads are available from Elvedes and offer good value for money. Three different compounds are available: organic, sintered, and metallic carbon (semi-metallic). Organic brake pads are ideal for dry conditions and suitable for MTB, trekking, and road bikes. Sintered brake pads are ideal for wet conditions and suitable for MTB. Metallic carbon brake pads are ideal for both wet and dry conditions and suitable for e-bikes. After installing new brake pads, it is important to bed them in for a longer lifespan. Bedding in can be done by gently pulling the brake lever while riding, ensuring the brake pads contact the brake disc. Ride for about 100 meters at a speed of 25 kilometers per hour (15 mph), then brake harder at the end to reduce the speed to about 5 kilometers per hour (3 mph). Then, slowly increase the speed while braking lightly. This process should be repeated 10 to 12 times to ensure the new brake pads are properly bedded in.
