Italian performance does not stop at the engine. With the MALOSSI SPORT brake pads, Malossi brings its sporting development philosophy directly to the front brake. The organic friction compound combines reliable braking performance with excellent modulation, making this pad set an attractive choice for riders who enjoy riding their Vespa with precision and a dynamic style.
The brake pads with Malossi part number 6215013BB are suitable for numerous Vespa GTS, GTS Super, GTV, Sprint and Primavera models as well as further vehicles from Piaggio, Gilera, Derbi and Aprilia. Rather than pursuing uncompromising racing characteristics, these pads focus on a balanced combination of braking performance, durability and controllable response.
Malossi develops brake pads for different applications ranging from road scooters to racing. The SPORT version is positioned as a performance-oriented replacement for the standard brake pads. Its organic and completely asbestos-free friction material is designed to provide good durability while maintaining effective braking performance.
Malossi places particular emphasis on brake modulation. This is exactly what matters on the road: braking force should not simply be available, but should build up in a controlled way through the brake lever. Whether braking into a corner, dealing with stop-and-go city traffic or enjoying a fast country-road ride, this gives the rider a precise feeling for the front brake.
The product images clearly show the construction of the brake pad set. Both pads feature black metal backing plates with two guide holes each. One of the two pads additionally has the characteristic extended side section with an open mounting point.
The design of the friction surfaces is particularly distinctive: two transverse grooves visually divide each pad into three sections. The grey, finely textured surface clearly reveals the character of the organic friction material and gives the pads a distinctly technical appearance.
Engine, transmission, suspension – Malossi has represented Italian performance components for decades. That philosophy does not end at the brake caliper. According to Malossi, its complete range of brake pads is developed and manufactured in Italy.
This turns a conventional wear part into a genuine Malossi component: developed for riders who do not simply want to fit any replacement part when servicing their Vespa, but also value a performance-oriented solution for the braking system.
Malossi has its approved brake pads tested in accordance with ECE R90. The testing was carried out in cooperation with DEKRA and includes, among other procedures, road tests with braking in cold and stressed operating conditions as well as laboratory testing of the friction material.
The brake pads shown carry the E24 marking and an R90 marking. However, the vehicle-specific application must be taken into account: Malossi explicitly lists some applications for part number 6215013BB as homologated while other technically compatible applications are listed as not homologated. Approval must therefore not automatically be assumed for every compatible vehicle.
Malossi 6215013BB brake pads are also offered for numerous other Piaggio, Gilera, Derbi and Aprilia models. As Malossi provides different compatibility and homologation information depending on model, year, engine version and installation position, the exact vehicle application should be checked before ordering.
A fast Vespa needs more than an engine that inspires. It needs a brake that gives the rider confidence. This is where the MALOSSI SPORT pads reveal their character: organic friction material, controllable braking response and excellent modulation combine to create a setup that perfectly complements the sporting DNA of the Italian brand.
No showpiece, no visible tuning accessory – but exactly the kind of upgrade you can feel every time you pull the brake lever.
Depending on year, engine version and vehicle specification, different braking systems may have been fitted within the same model range. Before ordering, the shape, mounting points and dimensions should therefore be compared with the currently installed brake pads and the specific Malossi vehicle application.
ECE R90 homologation is vehicle-specific. The presence of a marking on the brake pad does not automatically mean that homologation applies to every technically compatible vehicle variant. The relevant Malossi application information for the specific vehicle must be observed.
Brake pads are safety-critical wear components. When replacing them, the brake disc, brake caliper and other components of the braking system should be checked for condition and correct operation. Installation and the final functional check must be carried out professionally.
