The brake lining is that part of the brake pad which actually contacts the metal brake disc (rotor) when the brake is engaged. Using a typical bicycle brake as an example, the backing would be the metal shell which provides mechanical support, and the lining would be the rubbery portion which contacts the rims when the brakes are applied.
The concept of brake pads or disc brakes as an alternative to drum brakes had been around at least as early as a patent by F. W. Lanchester in 1902. [2] However, due to high cost and inefficiencies compared to drum brakes they were not commonly implemented until after World War II. [3]
Deputy Editor Tara Seplavy and Senior Photographer Trevor Raab explain organic vs. metallic disc brake pads, plus we chat about Roubaix bikes and Timeless Gear.
Generally, a brake pad that aggressively abrades more disc material away, such as metallic pads, will create more brake dust. Some higher-performing pads for track use or towing use may wear away much quicker than a typical pad, thus causing more dust due to the increased brake disc and brake pad wear.
The brake balance or brake bias of a vehicle is the distribution of brake force at the front and rear tires, and may be given as the percentage distributed to the front brakes (e.g. 52%) [1] or as the ratio of front and rear percentages (e.g. 52/48). [2]
The poor water clearance of bar grips may limit their performance on very wet mud. With later patterns, such as the NATO, water may be squeezed out from between the blocks, leaving the mud drier and firmer. As the bar grip gives no escape for this water, they may retain a layer of water-lubricated mud like quicksand that remains extremely slippery.
