Fibrax Brake Pads (Avid Elixir)

I’d been given some pads from Fibrax to test about a month ago and I’d just like to say, AMAZING!

The difference between these and the current ones that are available at the moment is that the material has been changed slightly and it’s also been compressed a hell of a lot more.
Basically the material is denser so they last longer. I found that this didn’t affect the “Bed In” period for the worse.
It was actually a lot quicker than other pads I’ve used in the past! Which is a breath of fresh air IMO as who has the time to actually do 10 short sharp stops without skidding? Not me anyway.
But this is mainly because I’m lazy.
I’ll report more on how these wear as and when, but from the looks of it and from the places I’ve been riding, I dont think it’ll be soon.
