DescriptionThe whole story▼
EXR is new for 2026 and it replaces the EXC Endurance compound rather than sitting beside it. The headline claim from ZCOO is specific and it lands squarely on a Panigale V4: up to twenty percent more braking power in the second phase of braking. That is the part of the zone a V4 rider actually lives in - not the first grab from 290 km/h, but the long middle where the bike is still shedding speed, the disc is already glowing, and the front tyre is being asked to turn as well as stop.
Key Features
- Up to 20 percent more braking force in the second phase of braking, where a 1,103 cc V4 spends most of its braking zone
- New backing plate alloy, developed alongside the compound rather than carried over
- Initial bite comparable to the outgoing EXC Endurance, but with a more progressive build-up that gives back the modulation EXC traded away
- Better cold performance than EXC and greater stability at high temperature - fewer laps spent waiting for the pad to come in
- Durability equal to or better than EXC, which itself lasted around twice as long as EX Race
- Same B005 shape as the EX Race version - a bolt-in change of mixture, not of geometry; one pack per caliper, two for the Panigale's twin discs
Construction and Material Quality
The visible change over the outgoing compound is the backing plate: ZCOO specified a new alloy for EXR rather than reusing the EXC plate. On a Panigale that is not cosmetic. The Brembo monobloc spreads under peak pressure, and a plate that yields with it shifts the contact patch to the pad's edges just as the rider is asking for the most from it. The friction material remains ceramic-sintered and is still made by Okada Corporation in Japan, on the same B005 shape as the EX Race pad.
Performance and Feel
Choosing between EX Race and EXR on a Panigale V4 comes down to what you want back. EX Race is the control-first mixture: modest initial bite, an exceptionally flat curve, easy on the discs. EXR takes the harder bite that EXC Endurance was known for and rebuilds the progressiveness around it, then adds power where a superbike needs it most. If you brake late and hold the lever deep into the corner, EXR is the one that changes your marker. If your priority is a lever that never surprises you, stay with EX.
Fitment and Compatibility
Listed by ZCOO for the Ducati Panigale V4 from 2018 through 2024 with the 1,103 cc engine, on the Brembo monobloc caliper. Front axle only. EXR became available at the start of September 2026; ZCOO has not published a technical data sheet for the compound beyond the characteristics listed here.
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.
