GRAPHENpads Ceramic Disc Brake Pads – SRAM eTap AXS Road & MTB (Disc 35)
The GRAPHENpads Disc Brake Pads for SRAM eTap AXS – Disc 35 represent a new generation of braking performance for riders using SRAM AXS road, gravel and MTB hydraulic disc brakes. Designed with advanced materials and precision engineering, these ceramic pads combine graphene‑enhanced compounds, graphene‑coated backplates, and integrated cooling fins to deliver powerful, consistent braking in all conditions.
Widely stocked by specialist bike shops in Brisbane and used across Queensland and Australia, Disc 35 GRAPHENpads are a popular choice for cyclists upgrading brake performance during routine bicycle service, brake overhauls or race‑ready builds.
Graphene‑Enhanced Braking Technology
At the heart of Disc 35 pads is a ceramic organic performance compound infused with modified graphene, paired with a graphene‑based thermal coating on the backplates. This advanced construction improves heat dissipation, reduces brake fade, and delivers predictable modulation on long descents and technical terrain.
By eliminating copper and heavy metals, GRAPHENpads offer strong stopping power while aligning with modern environmental standards—ideal for riders seeking high performance without compromise.
Consistent Control Across Road, Gravel and MTB
Whether you're sprinting in a criterium, descending alpine roads, or tackling mixed‑surface gravel and trail riding, Disc 35 pads provide stable bite and quiet operation. The cooling fin design helps control heat during sustained braking, maintaining lever feel and rotor performance over extended efforts.
Performance remains reliable in all weather conditions, from dry summer roads to wet and gritty winter riding.
Lightweight, Durable and Long‑Lasting
Each complete set weighs approximately 20 grams, plus a 1‑gram spring, keeping system weight low without sacrificing durability. According to manufacturer testing, a single set can average around 8,000 km in hilly road conditions under predominantly dry use, making them a practical and long‑lasting upgrade for high‑mileage riders.
