DescriptionThe whole story

A light bike like the KTM 690 SMC R concentrates everything in a single front brake. ZCOO's answer is the B003 - the smallest friction face in the range - filling the Brembo caliper of the 690 SMC R. What the B003 carries is EX Race: a ceramic sinter tuned for proportionality over attack.

Key Features

  • Runs cooler at the disc than a conventional sinter, because the ceramic film it forms carries part of the load on the 690 SMC R
  • Country of origin Japan; ZCOO does not source its friction material outside its own plant
  • Part number Z-B003-EX, EAN 4950545750037
  • Shipped in ZCOO's own packaging with the ZRM-B003C code printed on it, so a repeat order needs no guesswork
  • ZCOO specifies this reference for the KTM 690 SMC R directly, not by cross-reference from a similar machine
  • Ceramic sintering rather than a resin binder, so there is nothing in the B003 to cook out at the top of the range

Construction and Material Quality

Manufacture is Japanese and unchanged across the range, the B003 included. The ceramic content is what lets the B003 form a protective film on a 690 SMC R disc instead of abrading it. On the 690 SMC R that translates into a lever position which does not creep as the pad thins.

Performance and Feel

On a 690 SMC R the second half of a session is where EX Race earns its price. Across 7 model years of the 690 SMC R the behaviour is the same, because the compound is. For a supermoto like the 690 SMC R the heat has nowhere to go, so the compound has to hold.

Fitment and Compatibility

ZCOO catalogues the B003 for the 690 SMC R of 2014 to 2020. The same B003 shape covers 9 further machines in the 2026 catalogue. Before ordering, check that your caliper takes a pad of 35.2 mm length and 40.5 mm height. Front axle exclusively - there is no rear B003.

Road Approval

No ECE R90 type approval is documented for this pad. It appears neither in ZCOO's own catalogue nor on the European distributor's site, and no approval number is printed on the packaging data available to us. ZCOO itself describes the compound as suited to competition machines and road machines alike, but that is a description of the mixture, not a type approval. Until the distributor confirms an approval in writing, treat this as a track and competition part: in Germany a replacement brake pad without ECE R90 approval may not be fitted to a motorcycle used on public roads. Ask us before ordering if you need this clarified for your machine.
