Road brake pad inserts from Fibrax - Xtreme - Red

Pair of replacement road brake pads (inserts) from Fibrax. (The same as used by Brompton except this is the Extreme / red version) Please note: This is just the rubber pad, not the holder / shoe.

Fibrax Xtreme (red) road / Brompton brake pad inserts

The Fibrax Xtreme pads are mad with the unique Xtreme (hardwearing) compound. That means these pads are perfect for wet winter riding, CX and anything where you want pad longevity

The old brake pad-insert is removed by using an Allen key / hex wrench to loosen an Allen bolt, then sliding out the brake pad

The new brake pad is then slid into place and the allen bolt re-tightened

Replacing just the pad (rather than the pad and holder) saves on having to buy a complete pad and holder set (saving money and the earth)

Fitting / installation instructions are included on the back of the pack

Tools required:

  • 1mm Allen Key

Way back in 2007 Bike Radar produced this review of the Fibrax Xtreme pads and scored them 4.5 out of 5

Made in Wrexham in the UK
