Accossato calls ZXC a ceramic compound ideal for racing. It is the choice for teams and riders who race an older SMC or SMC R and want to test a ceramic compound alongside EV2 to find the lever feel that suits them. On a well-prepared race bike, having two racing options in the same pad shape makes it easier to tune the front brake to each circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZXC ceramic racing compound for the older KTM 690 SMC and SMC R front\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers 2007 to 2011 and 2014 to 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccossato: a ceramic compound ideal for racing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA racing alternative with its own lever feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to control heat under repeated stops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo pads for the single front caliper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable alternatives: OR, ST, EV1 and EV2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eZXC is Accossato's ceramic racing compound, recommended by the company for competition. As with all its pads, Accossato aims for strong stopping, limited heat and low wear. The ZXC friction material is bonded to a steel carrier that fits the pre-2021 SMC front caliper.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTesting in the Paddock\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a supermoto race weekend, teams often use practice sessions to compare set-ups. Brake pads are part of that: one session on a known compound, one on another, then a decision based on feel, lap times and disc condition. ZXC gives SMC racers a ceramic option to try in that process. Keep a notebook, label the used sets, and compare with EV2 if you have run it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePaddock Safety\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eHandle pads with clean hands, keep them away from chain lube and let the brakes cool before changing sets.

The 2021 to 2024 SMC R takes AGPA177. One box covers the single front caliper.
