Bendix or SBS

I've used/sold Bendix for years now and not had one bad feedback on them. Road and track, they've been spot on. Good value to. Use the MF compound.

 

I use Bendix on my track R1 and road bikes, I found them much better than SBS

 

@nelly can you confirm Bendix and SBS are the same pads? I can’t remember where I heard it but it’s my understanding?

 

Yes they are
Now sold as SBS

 

Yes mate. As far as I know, Bendix own SBS, always have done and they’ve consolidated the brand. SBS was always better known for bike brakes. Same pads, different branding. I’m still selling them and haven’t noticed or had any negative feedback from customers who’ve been using Bendix for the years I’ve been stocking them.

 

Yep, Nelly put me onto them. Not looked for any others since.

 

I have used Bendix MF for a few years now on my 4 pad calipers. What is the spec/compound code of the now rebranded SBS that is equivalent?

 

Iirc their old part numbers are +500 for the equivalent new sbs numbers

 

FE is right. Bendix number plus 500, there is a slight change to the prefix letters but you can confirm with bike torque racing who are the distributor..... or I can tell you when I have the book out
