CARBONE LORRAINE RC5 Front Brake Pad Set for Renault Twingo 2 RS and Twingo R1

The Danger of Unsuitable Pads: Why Your Twingo RS Needs the RC5

Are you a Twingo 2 RS enthusiast or do you enter your Twingo R1 in competition? Using road brake pads on the track exposes you to the critical risk of FADING. This failure, caused by material overheating, results in a total loss of braking effectiveness, turning a controlled corner into a dangerous situation. Do not expose your safety and lap time to compromises. CARBONE LORRAINE RC5 brake pads are designed to maintain a high friction coefficient, even when temperatures exceed 800°C.

CARBONE LORRAINE RC5: The Benchmark in Competition Braking

The brand CARBONE LORRAINE (CL Brakes) is globally recognized in motorsport. The RC5 compound is a blend of technical materials designed to offer the best compromise between aggression and progressiveness, ideal for a lightweight vehicle like the Twingo RS. These front brake pads are specifically sized for direct mounting on the original calipers of your Twingo, ensuring maximum efficiency from the very first meters. This is the fastest and most effective investment for a braking performance upgrade.

Installation and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I use these RC5 pads with my original Twingo RS rotors?

RC5 pads are aggressive. To ensure their maximum performance and durability, we recommend pairing them with high-performance grooved or vented brake rotors, visible at the bottom of this page. Original rotors may not withstand the temperature generated by the RC5 compound during intensive use.

Do CARBONE LORRAINE pads need bedding in?

Yes. Bedding in the pads is mandatory to ensure an optimal contact surface with the rotor and perfect friction transfer. The customer can find the specific bedding-in instructions for the RC5 range in the packaging or on our website.
