My front's only came with red pads.
Makes me wonder if someone at Merlin is stealing the pads out of the boxes.
I read somewhere that blue was for road and red for off road. Not sure what exactly is different about them buy my guess is that one is organic/resin while the other is sintered/metallic.
Hope and backcountry.com both confirmed via email that E4 pads are a direct replacement.
