Frequently Asked Questions

What bikes use the Formula Cura 4 brakes?
Formula Cura 4 brakes are found on many high-end enduro, eMTB, and trail bikes from brands like Mondraker, Commencal, and Cube. If your bike has Cura 4 calipers, these pads will fit.
Are Cura 4 pads compatible with Cura or Cura Road calipers?
No. The Cura 4 uses a larger 4-piston caliper and requires a different pad shape than the 2-piston Cura and Cura Road models. Be sure to select the correct collection.
What’s the best compound for eMTB or bike park riding?
We recommend the Enduro Pro compound for long descents, eMTB torque loads, and wet or rocky terrain. It’s built to handle heat and abuse.
How do I reduce noise from Cura 4 brakes?
Ensure the pads are properly bedded in and rotors are clean. For quieter performance, use Factory Racing compound, which delivers smooth braking with low noise.
Do I need to bed in new Cura 4 pads?
Yes! Proper bedding-in is critical for full braking power and pad longevity. Follow our bedding-in guide after installation.
