Why Mud & Metal

Built Different

Every compound formulation is developed in-house and validated across real-world real-Welsh trail conditions before it earns the Mud & Metal stamp.

Race-Tested Formula
Compound ratios validated across 200+ descents in all conditions — wet, dry, loam, and rock.
Consistent Bite Point
No brake fade on long descents. Our sintered pads maintain modulation from top to bottom.
Extended Pad Life
Proprietary steel backing plate minimises flex and maximises compound-to-rotor contact life.
Drop-In Compatible
OEM tolerances. No caliper adjustments, bedding-in jigs, or specialist tools required.
Compound Guide

Pick Your Compound

Not all pads are created equal. Choose sintered for raw stopping power or organic for rider-friendly modulation.

Sintered Metal
For aggressive riding in all weather
Sintered
Stopping Power98%
Wet Performance95%
Durability92%
Modulation55%
Rotor WearHigh
Best suited to enduro, DH, and any riding where consistent power matters more than subtle control. Performs exceptionally in mud, rain, and river crossings. Requires a bedding-in period of 10–15 firm stops.
Organic Resin
For precision trail and cross-country riding
Organic
Stopping Power78%
Wet Performance62%
Durability68%
Modulation96%
Rotor WearLow
Ideal for XC, trail, and riders who want precise, progressive lever feel. Quieter than sintered and gentler on rotors. Performance drops in heavy rain or deep mud — swap to sintered for serious adverse conditions.
