P94 STUFF II SBS DYNAMIC RACING CONCEPT BRAKE PADS $139.95-225.95 I 888.268.1119 www.racingbrakesusa.com The new Dynamic Racing Concept (DRC) road-racing brake pads by SBS include two different pad compounds: DS-1 and DS-2. DS-1 has a strong initial bite with a linear friction curve, while DS-2 has a lower initial bite with a progressive friction curve. The two compounds can be combined by using DS-1 in one caliper, and DS-2 in the other, combining the benefits of both, and creating a DS-1.5. This setup creates another form of adjustability on a racing motorcycle for an individual rider's brake preference.

They've been improved to better handle unpredictable weather and road-surface conditions. Metzeler R&D strived to optimize them to work with a wide range of bikes, and also to allow electronic rider-assistance systems to function properly. Although primarily for the street, they are made for the track, too. The lineup of Sportec M9 RR tires includes three fronts and nine rears.
