The SBS 177CT Front Brake Pads are designed for scooter riders seeking enhanced performance for medium-distance travel, whether for touring or sporty riding. Their key benefit is improved braking capability due to the carbon compound. A key consideration is that this sale is for one pair of pads, suitable for one brake disc.

One pair of SBS 177CT brake pads is designed to fit one brake disc. If your scooter has two front brake discs, you will need to purchase two pairs.
NRS (NUCAP Retention System) technology is a patented system that provides a mechanical and indestructible fixing of the friction material to the brake pad backing plate, ensuring superior durability and safety.
The carbon compound offers good performance, but like all brake pads, performance can be affected by wet conditions. Ensure the brake system is functioning correctly and adjust braking distances accordingly in wet weather.
Inspect the brake pads regularly. Replace them when the friction material reaches the minimum thickness specified by your scooter's manufacturer, typically indicated by a wear indicator or a visual inspection of the pad material depth.
The SBS 177CT pads are recommended for sporty guiding and everyday transport. For dedicated racing applications, SBS may offer specific race-compound pads designed for extreme conditions.
Carbon compounds generally offer better initial bite, fade resistance, and consistent performance across a wider temperature range compared to some organic or semi-metallic compounds, making them well-suited for performance-oriented scooter use.
This can sometimes occur with new pads. Ensure the pads were bedded in correctly according to the manufacturer's instructions. Check for any debris trapped between the pad and disc. Sometimes, a light sanding of the pad surface or the use of brake grease on the back of the pad can help.
Check if the brake pads are worn beyond their recommended limit. Inspect the brake disc for damage or glazing. Ensure there are no air bubbles in the brake lines and that the brake fluid level is correct. Verify that the correct pad type has been installed.
This typically indicates air in the brake system. The brake system may need to be bled. Check brake lines for leaks and ensure the brake fluid is fresh and at the correct level.
Compatibility:
Before purchasing, verify that the SBS 177CT brake pads are compatible with your specific scooter model and year. Applications include models such as APRILIA SR Motard, SR Max, Sportcity One; PIAGGIO VESPA GTS, X9 Evolution; and DERBI Boulevard. Always confirm fitment details for your vehicle's braking system.
Installation:
These brake pads are designed for one brake disc per pair. Professional installation by a qualified mechanic is recommended to ensure correct fitment and function. Improper installation can lead to braking system failure. Follow the manufacturer's torque specifications and bedding-in procedures for optimal performance and longevity.
Care:
Keep the brake pads clean by avoiding excessive exposure to dirt, sand, and water. Periodically inspect the brake pads for wear. Replace them when the friction material reaches the minimum thickness specified by the vehicle manufacturer. Ensure the brake disc is clean and free of debris before installing new pads.
