Ladd Posted November 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 does anyone know how it will take cuz i dont trust my rear brake ! ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ticker Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 Don't drag the brake as that will make the pads go shite. Just ride normally and wait for them to bed in they shouldn'ttake long my plaz pads took about half hour to bed in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koxxtrials Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 make sure that the pads are not exactly touching the rim make sure they are slightly out or else the pads will drag against the rim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Anscombe Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 every set of plazz pads ive owned .take around 12 hrs ish to bed in properly......do it right and they are beasty pads......riding round with you brake on makes them pretty crap.....o dear to late you already done that!!!!take them out brush them over with sand paper.....clean the rim with lighter fluid/petrol.....set them back up and ride job DONE!dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boswell Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 (edited) Still got 3/4 of my plaz pads left after a year of riding. It all depends on your riding style really. Edited November 7, 2007 by Boswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpson Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Still got 3/4 of my plaz pads left after a year of riding. It all depends on your riding style really.What like your not ride at all style? blimey theyv'e lasted that long! But yea my pads never take that long to bedd in, just ride arround with them like you would normaly just do smaller stuff let it slip, make sure your pads are square on the rim and they usually hold within like.... 20mins.... maxDepends some pads work straight out the box like heatsink Blues... i usually run 2nd hand pads though :$ lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Anscombe Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 I always give pads a good 12 hours before im happy with them.........plazz pads though i know need a short while to bed in properly .......i already have two sets for next summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NileBrown™ Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 Still got 3/4 of my plaz pads left after a year of riding. It all depends on your riding style really.Yeah but tom, you have to remember you use your pads on a dead grind with tar so obviously they would last longer as it would be wearing the tar away and not the pad.
