Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

1. Remove the old pads from the caliper by loosening the retaining screws.
2. Clean the pad mounting surface with isopropyl alcohol to remove any residue.
3. Align the new sintered steel pads with the mounting holes and secure them using the provided screws.
4. Re‑insert the caliper into the fork or frame, ensuring proper alignment.
5. Adjust the brake lever tension if necessary to achieve optimal bite.

Performance Highlights

The sintered steel construction of these pads delivers a high coefficient of friction, which translates into strong, consistent braking force. Riders report:

• Rapid response even after prolonged use.
• Minimal fade during long descents or technical climbs.
• Excellent performance in wet and muddy environments due to the material’s resistance to water absorption.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect pads regularly for wear; replace when thickness falls below manufacturer recommendations.
• Clean the brake rotors with a non‑abrasive pad cleaner to remove oil or debris that could affect braking performance.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners on the sintered steel surface, as this can reduce friction.

Why Choose Sintered Steel Pads?

Sintered steel pads are engineered for riders who demand maximum stopping power and longevity. Unlike organic or semi‑metallic compounds, sintered steel maintains its performance over thousands of braking cycles. This makes them ideal for:

• Technical trail riding with frequent hard stops.
• High‑altitude climbs where heat buildup can be a concern.
• Riders who prefer a single, reliable brake pad solution without the need for frequent replacements.

Compatibility Across Brands

The Avid MY07-10 Code Disc Brake Pads are widely recognized and often interchangeable with pads from other reputable manufacturers such as Sram, JGO, and Velo. This cross‑compatibility ensures that riders can source replacements easily while maintaining the same performance characteristics.

Conclusion

The Avid MY07-10 Code Disc Brake Pads – Sintered Steel represent a blend of durability, power, and reliability. Whether you’re tackling steep descents or navigating technical trails, these pads provide the confidence that your braking system will perform consistently. Their universal fit for the Code series, combined with the high‑friction sintered steel compound, makes them an essential upgrade for any serious mountain bike enthusiast.
