Shave some weight off your ride with Origin-8's ultra-light Torq-Lite Disc Rotors. These 93-gram stainless-steel rotors are double ground for easy installation and heat treated for high strength. Origin-8 recommends sintered brake pads for the best performance.

To keep your Avid brakes functioning properly, check your pads for wear and replace them when necessary. Organic compound pads are softer for quieter braking and increased modulation, while metallic pads dissipate heat better and last a bit longer. Two pads, one retraction spring and a mounting bolt are included (enough for one brake) in each pad set. And, choose an aluminum backing plate if you're really counting the grams.

- T100 Sintered Metallic: long-life, all-condition compound - T106 Semi Metallic: no-bed, shorter-life, quieter compound - Set includes one pair of pads with retention clip

- High performance compounds recommended for all-conditions - Steel backing

Jagwire's Mountain Sport Disc Brake Pads (Shimano) feature a low-noise, semi-metallic compound mounted to a steel backing plate for excellent braking performance and durability.
