Performance Machine Replacement Brake Pads Brake pads for Performance Machine brake calipers. All brake pads come in sets of 2 brake pads. Available in Sintered or Organic versions. Brake Pads: Organic vs. Sintered Organic Brake Pads Pros: Provides predictable stopping power. Generates less noise. Gentle on brake rotors due to softer materials like aramid. Economically priced. Excellent choice for casual cruising. Cons: Takes longer to grip in wet conditions. Prone to 'glazing' when exposed to high temperatures. Has a shorter lifespan compared to sintered pads. Produces more brake dust. Sintered Brake Pads Pros: Lasts longer than organic variants. Superior heat resistance. Quick response in both wet and dry conditions. Outstanding stopping performance. Ideal for aggressive riding styles and all-weather situations. Cons: Metal particles in the pads can accelerate brake rotor wear. Not suitable for older brake rotor models unless they're certified for sintered pads, to avoid excessive rotor wear.
