DescriptionThe whole story

Adventure riding punishes a pad with heat cycles rather than peak temperature. The pad is the B005, cut at 102.2 by 42.0 mm to sit square in the Brembo caliper of the DESERT X. EXR reached the market in September 2026 and takes over from EXC Endurance in the B005 too.

Key Features

  • Sized for the braking energy a 937 cc machine generates, not scaled down from a larger reference
  • Predictable in the wet, because the compound does not need temperature to start working on a DESERT X
  • No ECE R90 type approval is documented for this compound - treat the B005 as a track and competition part
  • New backing plate alloy, specified with the compound instead of carried over from the EXC Endurance mixture EXR replaces
  • Supplied as a pack of two - the exact set the Brembo caliper of the DESERT X takes
  • The ceramic layer is sintered to the plate rather than pressed against it, which is what keeps the B005 together at the top of its temperature range

Construction and Material Quality

The B005 is made by Okada Corporation in Japan. Heat enters a B005 at the friction face and has to leave through the plate, which is why the alloy matters as much as the mixture. That is why the B005 holds a consistent contact patch deep into its service life.

Performance and Feel

The second phase of braking is where a compound either holds or gives up, and that is what ZCOO changed. For a DESERT X used hard, the extra force arrives exactly where the old compound was starting to give up. The Ducati DESERT X rarely brakes on a warm disc, and the B005 does not ask it to.

Fitment and Compatibility

This reference is catalogued for the Brembo-equipped Ducati DESERT X, 2023 to 2026. ZCOO lists no rear pad for the DESERT X. Before ordering, check that your caliper takes a pad of 102.2 mm length and 42.0 mm height. The same B005 shape covers 117 further machines in the 2026 catalogue.

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.
