Frequently Asked Questions
- Are the Clarks VX839C pads compatible with Avid BB7 callipers?
- No, the VX839C pads are specifically designed for Avid BB5 mechanical disc brake callipers. For BB7 callipers you will need a different pad model. If you are unsure, our team at The Bike Zone is happy to help confirm compatibility.
- What is the advantage of organic brake pads over sintered pads?
- Organic pads offer smoother, quieter braking and are gentler on brake rotors, making them great for everyday riding and moderate conditions. Sintered pads tend to last longer and handle heat better in extreme or wet conditions, but organic pads are an excellent all-round choice for most cyclists.

- Installation is straightforward and suitable for home mechanics. The CMD-17 backing plate ensures the pads locate correctly within the BB5 calliper. Basic tools and around 15 minutes are all you need, and plenty of online guides are available to walk you through the process.
