  1. Different Types of Brake Pads:

a. Rim Brake Pads: Rim brake pads are specifically designed for bikes equipped with rim brakes. They come in various compounds such as rubber, cork, and carbon, each offering different levels of braking power, modulation, and durability.

b. Disc Brake Pads: Disc brake pads are used in bikes equipped with disc brakes. They are available in organic, semi-metallic, and metallic compounds, each offering different levels of noise, modulation, and heat management. Organic pads are quieter and provide better modulation, while metallic pads offer more durability and heat resistance.
