Adventure/Touring Bike Brake Shoes

While disc brakes are common on today’s motorcycles, many of the modern bikes still come with the factory-installed rear drum brakes. They feature simple and dependable constructions that have been providing sufficient stopping power to bring motorcycles to a halt for decades. However, this setup is much more prone to overheating compared to disc systems due to its enclosed design. Brake shoes are the components that continuously work in high temperature and friction conditions, so they do wear out and need to be changed when their efficiency decreases.

The higher the quality of compound, the higher the resistance to high temperatures. The majority of original and aftermarket shoes use sintered compounds. They are almost entirely made from metal, hence they are also known as metallic shoes. Over the years, this construction has proven to be reliable and it still remains the preferred choice. However, the market offers other options, which include organic and semi-sintered friction materials. For a large choice of top-quality, durable, end efficient brake shoes for your adventure or touring bike, surf our online pages and you’re sure to find the right replacement for worn-out components.
