🔧 EBC CFA493HH Brake Pad Compatibility Table

Key Compatibility Notes:

✔ Direct Fit for Both Bikes – The EBC CFA493HH pads are physically identical to the OEM pads used in Sur-Ron and Talaria brake callipers, making them a plug-and-play upgrade.

✔ Works with OEM & Aftermarket Rotors – Compatible with both 180mm and 203mm rotors, commonly used on Sur-Ron and Talaria models.

⚠ Brake Fluid Differences –

• Sur-Ron uses DOT 4/5.1 brake fluid, while Talaria uses mineral oil.
• If swapping a complete braking system (e.g., caliper + lever) between the two, you MUST use the correct brake fluid for the system to prevent seal damage.
• Brake pads themselves do not affect fluid compatibility, but ensure you're using the correct fluid when servicing the system.

🧠 What You Should Consider Before Choosing Brake Pads:

1. Your Riding Style

   • Street/Commuter → smoother, quieter pads like EBC Green

   • Trail/Enduro → higher bite and fade resistance like EBC Red

   • Downhill/Race → maximum performance like EBC HH

2. Terrain & Conditions

   • Wet/muddy = look for good wet grip (Red or HH)

   • Long descents = choose fade-resistant pads (Red or HH)

3. Brake Feel Preference

   • Want quiet and smooth? → EBC Green

   • Want powerful and responsive? → EBC Red or HH

4. Maintenance & Rotor Wear

   • Softer pads (Green/Red) = kinder to rotors

   • Sintered pads (HH) = longer-lasting, but may wear rotors faster

⚠️ SAFETY WARNING: CHECK YOUR BRAKE PADS REGULARLY!

Driving with worn or damaged brake pads is dangerous and can lead to brake failure, longer stopping distances, and accidents. Regular inspections ensure:

⚠️ Maximum Braking Performance – Prevents loss of stopping power.

⚠️ Avoid Costly Repairs – Worn pads can damage rotors and callipers.

⚠️ Safe Driving Conditions – Reduces the risk of brake fade or failure.

⚠️ Legal Compliance – Faulty brakes can result in fines or failed inspections.
