Brake Pads (28-SB2256) [Brake - Brake Parts front] CL (previously CARBONE LORRAINE) XBK5, front, per disc // Please notice details Suitable for: Important notice: Why Carbone Lorraine brake pads and how we came to them: After we had already used numerous brands in endurance racing with our own team, including originals, EBC, Dunlopad, Brembo, Spiegler, Lucas, we followed an importer's recommendation (brand not named) for use at the 24 hours of Magny Cours (France) in 1997. Apart from training, i.e. just for the race, we had planned 10 pairs of brake pads for the front. After the second pad change during a pit stop, the calculation showed that we would run out of pads after 14 hours. We came across the Carbone Lorraine during a race service in the paddock. The seller's promise that they were very durable was the “straw” we were clutching at the time. After 12 hours we fitted the pads and then rode the remaining 12 hours without changing them. In preparation for the 1998 24-hour race in Oschersleben (Germany), we completed 200 laps in training with Carbone Lorraine pads and then measured the wear. Extrapolated to the expected race distance, the pads “should” last. In 1998, we actually completed the entire race distance without changing the surface. and the special feature: with road-approved ABE brake pads. 49.00 € |
