Incredible braking but quite noisy
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
So I knowingly bought these being designed for e-bikes, I however do not have a e-bike I have a road bike. I wanted some brake pads that are really strong and last a very long time and I only recently found out about MTX and their ceramic pads. I have red pads on my TT bike and gold pads on my road bike and the gold pads are incredibly noisy when they are cold while the red pads are mostly quite when cold. If you are going down a hill relatively quickly, when you initially engage the gold pads they are quite noisy but after a few seconds, depending on how hard you are braking, the pads do go completely quite once you get some heat into them. For those looking at the gold pads compared to the red ones, just keep that in mind, you will get very strong braking but they will be loud if they are cold.

Slept on these far too long
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
I always figured how much better could aftermarket pads be? Surely SRAM is doing an alright job making their own OE pads, aftermarket materials can't be that different. Well, after years of riding OE SRAM pads I finally tried these MTX pads. It is wild how much better they feel. Stronger bite and much quieter... the two things you could wish for from brake pads. My only regret is not trying them sooner. I'm sure everyone's experience/opinions will vary, but considering these are negligibly more expensive than the OE pads anyway you should definitely give these a try next time you need pads. Ok relatively they're 1.5x as expensive ($23 vs $35 I believe)... but $12 more for a bike part that drastically improves the performance of your bike is a no brainer. Have not ridden them enough to comment on longevity... will update my review if they wear out unusually fast, but I have not seen any such complaints online so I'm not worried about that.
