Hayes Ryde Brake Pads These organic brake pads are comprised of a steel bracket with a lining mounted on it made with metal particles bound together by resin. Organic brake pads perform very well on the ground as they allow you to build up speed before braking gradually and easily. The A2Z organic brake pads cope extremely well in terms of fading/recovering as even though there is a loss of power when used in high temperatures, they regain their full power as soon as the bike returns to their temperature range. Consequently, these brake pads are ideal for cross-country use through to long-distance rides.
