Sram Organic w/Steel Backing Plate (Quiet)

Silent Power. Superior Modulation.

The Sram Organic Pads utilize a high-performance resin compound bonded to a robust steel backing plate. This combination is engineered to provide an immediate "bite" from the very first pull of the lever. By using a softer organic material, these pads are also significantly kinder to your rotors.

Why Organic Steel-Backed Pads are a Rider Favorite:

• Whisper-Quiet Operation: The organic resin compound is specifically formulated to eliminate vibration and harmonic resonance, providing a smooth, silent stop even in the middle of a high-speed descent.

• Aggressive Initial Bite: Unlike metallic pads that need heat to "wake up," these organic pads offer instant friction, making them ideal for the "stop-and-go" nature of urban commuting and technical singletrack.

• Superior Lever Modulation: Provides a highly intuitive, linear braking curve. You can "feather" your brakes with surgical precision, giving you more control over your traction on loose gravel or wet pavement.

• Rotor-Friendly Performance: The softer compound reduces abrasive wear on your rotors, saving you money in the long run by keeping your braking surfaces flat and true for more seasons.

• Steel Backing Plate Durability: The heavy-duty steel plate provides a rigid platform that resists flexing under hard braking, ensuring every ounce of pressure from the pistons is transferred directly to the rim.

• Low Heat Transfer: Organic materials naturally act as an insulator, helping to keep heat out of the caliper and preventing the "spongy" lever feel caused by boiling brake fluid.

The Alegro Perspective: In the shop, we call these the "customer favorites." If a rider comes in complaining about noisy brakes, 90% of the time, we swap them to these organic pads. They provide a much "plusher" feel at the lever that makes even a mid-range brake system feel like a high-end hydraulic setup. If you aren't doing 20-minute downhill runs in the Alps, the organic compound is almost always the better choice for daily riding.

Instant Friction. Silent Control. Master the Stop with Sram.
