Got a friend with these on her EBike I already told how much SRAM rip off pads are 🙄 So looking at Uber bike which compound should she go for the E Matrix ?

Looking at how much she can get a pair of brakes from Banana I'm almost tempted to tell her to buy a pair from them at £35 !That's less than the pads 🤔🤔🤔🤔

SRAM pads are noisy too, at least mine are.

Got those brakes on my Trek. They’re ok once they’ve been bled properly, pretty consistent today after some e-bike winch and plummet, unlike how they were supplied.

I’ve used those Uberbike pads on my normal  bike on the grounds that me on an analogue bike is the same gross weight as an average weight person on an e-bike.

Decent enough pads.

I've got the Superstar kevlar pads at the moment and they are noticeably more powerful than some.other aftermarkets I had in before. Not used e matrix in these but they seem good enough on a different set of brakes.

I found the ebike specific pads from Uber really good on my full fat eeb
