Most modern brakes use a cast iron disc squeezed between two brake pads lined with friction material.
Do ceramic brakes stop quickly.

There s a right way and a wrong way to do anything and through the thick storm of relentless marketing hype that line can get a little blurred.
Do not tow anything of substantial weight until you have broken in the ceramic brake pads.
Carbon ceramic brakes on the other hand are virtually immune to corrosion.
In the real world though not every brake pad.
What causes the squeal.

Every brake pad manufacturer says that they re the best and that they re an upgrade from whatever you already have.
Heat also dissipates more quickly from ceramic brake pads providing a quicker recovery time after heavy braking potentially lowering the risk of brake failure on long descents.
These brake pads are made from ceramic very similar to the type of ceramic used to make pottery and plates but is denser and a lot more durable.
Another option for brake pads are ceramic brake pads.
Ceramic brake pads stop better.
Do ceramic brake pads stop better are they worth changing to.
Finally carbon ceramic brakes are much cleaner and quieter than conventional steel brakes.
Because the ceramic pads draw less heat more heat remains in the rotor which can cause rotor warping in extreme conditions.
Doing so may cause excessive heat build up on the brake pads causing their efficiency and performance to suffer.
This is because the material they re made from is much less reactive than steel and iron due to the material s tightly bonded structure.
Be prepared at first for the brakes to be touchy.
Do not break in the brake pads quickly or without care.
