MAGURA Brake Pads Type 6.1 Performance – MT6 / MT7 / MT Trail Carbon

Push your limits with the MAGURA Type 6.1 Performance brake pads. Designed for MT6, MT7, and MT Trail Carbon hydraulic disc brakes, the Performance compound is formulated for maximum friction, sharp initial bite, and powerful progressive braking. When you need every millimetre of stopping distance back — on a steep chute, a loose rock garden, or a high-speed enduro stage — the 6.1 Performance delivers.

Performance Compound – No Compromise

The 6.1 Performance formula squeezes the most stopping power out of MT6, MT7, and MT Trail Carbon calipers. Expect higher peak deceleration and more aggressive lever feel than the Endurance compound — at the cost of slightly faster wear. For riders who regularly replace pads and demand the best from their brakes, it’s the obvious choice.

Product Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Which MAGURA brakes are compatible with the 6.1 Performance pads?

The Type 6.1 Performance pads fit MAGURA MT6, MT7, and MT Trail Carbon hydraulic disc brake calipers. Always verify your exact brake model before ordering.

What is the difference between 6.1 Performance and 6.2 Endurance?

Performance (6.1) provides higher peak braking force and sharper lever response — the choice for aggressive riding and racing. Endurance (6.2) offers longer pad life and consistent modulation for everyday and touring use.

How many pads are included?

Each set contains 2 pads (1 set = 2 pieces) for one caliper. Order 2 sets for a full front and rear replacement.

Do Performance pads wear faster than Endurance pads?

Yes. The Performance compound is optimised for maximum friction, which results in faster wear. Inspect every 300–600 km and replace when friction material reaches approximately 1 mm.

Are these suitable for e-bikes?

Yes, for e-bikes fitted with compatible MT6 or MT7 calipers. The Performance compound handles the heavier braking demands of e-bikes effectively, though wear will be faster than Endurance pads.

Do these pads require bedding in?

Yes. Perform 10–15 progressive brake applications from medium speed to a near stop before riding hard. Proper bedding in seats the compound fully against the rotor for peak performance from the start.
