DISCS AND PADS

Owning multiple wheel sets for race bike, pit bike and last minute tyre changes is common in cyclo cross; to save the hassle of making adjustments for each wheel change, it is really important that each wheel set has matching hubs and discs to make wheel changes quick and easy. 

Lightweight discs from SRAM or SHIMANO add significant cost to wheel sets, so we have tested many options for lightweight, reasonably priced discs and pads.

We usually recommend Quaxar's discs and pads and DT SWISS' Centre Lock adaptors because they meet our requirements for the balance of cost, weight, and performance. However we are testing alternatives due to supply issues - watch this space for updated recommendations.

If your discs rub when you change wheels, use our Centre Lock Shims to finely space your discs.
