Carbon X or TT Brakes
When we talk about the best off-road riders, one name always comes to mind. Our old friend Malcolm Smith, who has had an EBC outlet in his shop for many years, is a big supporter of EBC Brakes’ Carbon X or TT brake series and has been using them for trail and enduro riding for years. I’m using. Also, multiple champion Randy Hawkins has been using EBC carbon-based X pads (known as TT pads in Europe) for many years.
Although Carbon X or TT brakes don’t last as long as sintered copper brake pads, they have the unique advantage of generating and conducting less heat. Such a feature is a great advantage when driving off-road at high speeds in dry conditions. We’ve listened to fast riders over the years and have witnessed cases of rear brake rotors glowing red during night rides. This shows how hot the rotors get with trail braking. Using carbon-based pads such as X-pads or TT pads will prevent this from affecting your bike’s hydraulics.
In Europe & USA
In Europe these pads are selected by adding the suffix TT to the part number and in the USA by adding the letter X after the FA (Freeman Automotive) series part number. EBC Carbon X or TT Brakes are coded red in paint finish and is equally happy on an ATV or a Moto X or Enduro bike and is also used in ATV Sport riding.
However, riders using these pads on their ATVs should be careful, especially on the rear rotor, as they may have a shorter wear life than the sintered pads that were installed on the original unit. Millions of riders still choose carbon pads because of their lower price compared to sintered pads. For street enduro applications such as ‘Paris-Dakar’ style road DR bikes, the EBC Carbon X or TT brakes are the ideal choice. Many European models have R 90 approval, making them safe for road use. For its ability to function effectively when hot.
More Information
This is our best selling sport ATV pad! 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. The material is also very useable for standard sport ATV usage. Also TUV tested and KBA approved for street use on enduro bikes. The TT series or X pads do not last as long as a sintered pad but are a strong favourite amongst Enduro riders due to their low heat transfer
