LESS 657 Balanced pads use a versatile semi‑metallic compound engineered for riders who want predictable, controlled braking across a wide range of disciplines. Compatible with Magura MT2, MT4, MT6, and MTS brake systems, these pads deliver a smooth, reactive feel with excellent modulation and quiet performance in everyday riding conditions.

The high‑organic, low‑metallic blend provides reactive braking at low temperatures and a very fast bed‑in period, making them ideal for XC, gravel, road, and general trail use. Their balanced formulation offers dependable braking power without excessive rotor wear, making them a popular choice for riders and workshops seeking reliable all‑round performance.

Riders should note that the Balanced compound prioritises versatility and quiet operation, meaning performance may decrease on long, steep descents or in wet and muddy conditions. For riders who frequently ride in those environments, the Progressive or Powerful compounds may be more suitable.
