SBS Enters Second 'Better Brakes' Program Transition Phase
Following the launch of the company's improved performance brake pad series late last year - SBS 'Better Brakes' - SBS has announced that it has started the expected second transition phase that will include rear brake pad compounds LS, H.LS, RQ, ATS and CT - plus the H.CT front wheel compound.
"Our customers and riders in general expect top brake performance and that is exactly what they with SBS 'Better Brakes'. In addition to improved stopping p
ower and durability, our 'Better Brakes' program also delivers a product that is produced in a non-fossil production setup and without heavy metals such as copper and nickel," says Marketing and Product Manager at SBS, Thomas Midtgaard-Jørgensen.
"Our customers have welcomed the introduction of SBS 'Better Brakes' in full and we look forward to starting to be able to supply riders worldwide with the second wave as well. The second phase is presently being initiated and the first products in the transition will be available for orders by SBS distributors as soon as Q3 2023.
"In addition to the improved braking power and brake feel from first stop, a higher heat resistance increases reliability and durability. All brake pad products will be equipped with integrated NRS Technology which locks the compound material to the backing plate. All compounds for public roads will be ECE R90 approved."
