Hi All,
Has anyone seen the new Hope ebike specific pads for the V4 brakes?
Has anyone tried them?
yes, have switched from the sintered pads to the purple ebike pads on the rear of my Spesh Enduro. found them to be more forgiving & less grabby than the sintered & not glaze the disc
still run the sintered pads in the front. 203mm rotors F&R
I got a set with my v4s, I was just going to run them when my pads run out, is there a big difference?!
I have not! What’s different about them? Google is not finding me any answers other than them being purple...
Look like the same as other purple galfer pads https://m.bikester.co.uk/galfer-bike-e-bike-brake-pads-for-sram-guide-avid-xo-trail-purple-901968.html?
So semi metallic.
Might be better than both the organic and full sintered pads you get with V4's.

I’ve been running Hope organics and the first set didn’t last very long at all - but I collected the new bike from my LBS and went straight out into filthy wet and muddy conditions. The second set have lasted over five times as long, presumably due to being properly bedded in?
