"specials" Balanced semi‑metallic brake pads for Formula Cura, Mega, The One, R0, R1, RX, RR1, T1, and C1. Designed for all‑terrain riding with reactive low‑temperature braking, quiet performance, fast bed‑in, and consistent control across XC, trail, gravel, road, and e‑bike use.

LESS 650 Balanced pads use a highly versatile semi‑metallic compound engineered for riders who want dependable, all‑conditions braking across XC, trail, enduro, downhill, gravel, road, and e‑bike disciplines. Compatible with Formula Cura, Mega, The One, R0, R1, RX, RR1, T1, and C1 brake systems, these pads deliver a smooth, controlled feel with excellent modulation.

The high‑organic, low‑metallic blend provides reactive braking at low temperatures, quiet operation, and a quick bed‑in period, making them ideal for everyday riding and workshop use. This compound offers a strong balance between power and durability while helping reduce rotor wear.

Riders should note that the Balanced compound prioritises versatility and feel, meaning performance may decrease on very long, steep descents or in wet and muddy conditions. For riders seeking maximum power or enhanced wet‑weather performance, the Progressive or Powerful compounds may be better suited.
