This compound has been designed specifically for road use. It combines many of the characteristics found in a pure racing material (high friction, absence of fade) but has improved cold performance, and reduced disc wear and noise.
The key features of DS Performance are:
High friction coefficient (0.46 average)*
Excellent disc life
Low wheel dust
Racing "feel"
Low heat transmission to caliper - thus avoiding fluid boil
DS Performance is recommended for road use only. R90 compliant (EU standard for road pads).
*This is the average coefficient of friction from a fast road testing schedule, it would be lower in a test schedule representative of race use.
