Code and other Avid brakes can use different shapes. They are not all covered by these Small-shape products.

The current products in this collection list Elixir compatibility and use the SRAM/Avid Small pad shape. Check the exact hydraulic caliper against the pad outline and product listing.

For SRAM crossover names, distinguish the two-piece Small family from Small Asymmetric monoblock versions. Level Stealth 4-piston uses Medium; it is not the Small shape.

For mechanical calipers, browse the separate Avid BB5 / BB7 collection and distinguish BB5 from BB7 before choosing a pad.

Avid Brake Pads FAQs

A little help with fitment, compounds and getting ready to ride.

How do I select the correct pad for Avid?

Match the full caliper model and pad outline to the detailed fitment information and the selected product. Where several model groups are listed, select your group first; a shared brand, compound or piston count does not make every pad shape interchangeable.

Which of the available compounds should I compare?

Enduro Pro Ultimate Orange focuses on braking performance and pad life for demanding descents and heavier loads. Enduro Pro Semi Metallic Blue combines versatile braking with heat management for trail riding, touring and long descents.

Which compounds are e-bike rated, and which do you recommend for heavy loads?

All Enduro Pro and Factory Racing compounds are e-bike rated. For heavy cargo, loaded touring and demanding descents, we recommend Enduro Pro Ultimate Orange or Enduro Pro Semi Metallic Blue in the correct fitment.

How should I prepare the rotor and bed in new pads?

Check the rotor’s condition, wear limit and permitted pad material. Follow the installation instructions for your caliper and our bedding-in guide, including rotor preparation when changing compounds.
