Lewis LP-30 Semi-Metallic Brake Pads

Quiet braking, smooth control, and dependable durability for compatible Lewis 2-piston brake systems.

The Lewis LP-30 Semi-Metallic Brake Pads are designed for riders who want a balanced blend of braking power, low noise, and reduced rotor wear. Built for Lewis LV2, BB2, SL, and SLR calipers, the LP-30 uses a semi-metallic brake pad compound that delivers consistent stopping power with a smoother, quieter feel than full sintered metallic pads. For riders who want reliable braking without the harsher feel and noise of more aggressive compounds, the LP-30 is a strong all-around option.

Semi-metallic pads are especially well suited for riders who want predictable braking in mixed conditions while helping preserve rotor life. Compared with sintered metallic compounds, they typically offer quieter operation, smoother initial bite, and less abrasive rotor contact, while still providing stronger durability and heat resistance than many organic-style pads. That makes the LP-30 a practical choice for trail, XC, all-around mountain bike, and everyday riding.

Ideal For

The Lewis LP-30 Semi-Metallic Brake Pads are ideal for riders looking for a quiet, reliable brake pad for XC, trail, and all-around mountain bike use. They are especially well suited for riders who want balanced braking performance with smoother feel and less rotor wear than a full sintered metallic pad.

If you want a brake pad that prioritizes consistency, lower noise, and everyday ride quality, the Lewis LP-30 is a strong choice for compatible Lewis 2-piston brake systems.

Lewis TP-30 Sintered Metallic Brake Pads

High-heat braking power, strong durability, and dependable performance for aggressive riding.

The Lewis TP-30 Sintered Metallic Brake Pads are built for riders who need consistent braking performance under high heat and heavy load. Designed for Lewis LV2, BB2, SL, and SLR calipers, the TP-30 uses a sintered metallic compound that delivers strong bite, excellent fade resistance, and dependable braking in demanding conditions. These pads are especially well suited for riders pushing hard on long descents, steep terrain, and heavier bikes.

Sintered metallic pads are a strong choice for riders who prioritize braking power, durability, and consistent performance over absolute quietness. Compared with softer compounds, they typically handle sustained braking heat better and tend to last longer in wet, muddy, and abrasive riding conditions. For aggressive trail, enduro, downhill, and e-bike use, the TP-30 is designed to maintain confidence when braking loads increase.

Compatibility

• Lewis LV2
• Lewis BB2
• Lewis SL
• Lewis SLR

Key Features & Benefits

• Sintered Metallic Compound: Designed for high heat resistance and strong braking power during repeated heavy braking.
• Fade-Resistant Performance: Handles long descents and sustained braking better than many softer pad compounds.
• Excellent Durability: Built for long service life in dry, wet, and muddy conditions.
• Consistent Braking Feel: Delivers stable, predictable braking performance on demanding terrain.
• Caliper-Specific Fitment: Built specifically for compatible Lewis 2-piston calipers using the TP-30 pad shape.
• Strong Choice for Aggressive Riding: Ideal for riders who value braking power and heat control over lower noise and reduced rotor wear.

What to Expect from Sintered Metallic Pads

• Pros: Better heat resistance, strong braking consistency, long pad life, and improved durability in harsh conditions.
• Trade-Offs: Metallic pads can run louder than organic or semi-metallic options and may increase rotor wear over time.
