Ezg_Cannuck Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Another small, maybe dumb question, but what do you guys think the best Magura style brake pad is for rims with no grind? I'm looking for power, durability isn't my priority. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psycholist Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Just never, ever take the bike out while it's wet or even damp. Any moisture on a smooth rim turned the rock green pads I got on my bike from instant lockers to no braking at all. I wouldn't recommend them unless you live somewhere the weather doesn't suck...

Captain Scarlet Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Any of the Deng pads are amazing.I am runnign Echo pads, have been for about 8 months now and they still have plenty of pad left.My friend has gone through about 3 sets of pads on a grind in the time I have had my Echo pads.I think some of the Adamant pads are being sold cheap on Tarty and SelectBikes.

Alex Dark Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 zoo pads are supposed to work pretty well on a smooth rim...im using koxx browns at the moment as a front brake, as i do stoppies...buts its really personal preference; i think koolstops work the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
