jordan282 Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 i went on to the neco pads website and for the neco yellows it saysDesigned for use on a light grind, these pads have been shown to offer great performance and incredible hold. Hand cut to keep the price low and with only a light grind your rim will last longer too. 8mm of material for even longer lasting pads.do you think that they would be as good with a smooth rim, im just getting into try and get my brakes a bit better and i was wonderin weather these would work?

JoNnY__Mc Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 If you are keeping your rim smooth, then buy the Neco red pads, these are softer than the yellows and work really well on a smooth rim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There not not the same as the standard hs33 reds are they? cause i have them and there not that good.Necopads is the only place that sells the pads They aren't the same as the magura red pads, I use the Neco red pads on the front and back and they work very very well!I'm sure that if you contact the person who runs the site by emailing "enquiries@necopads.co.uk" you will get some more information and they will answer any further questions!Hope I have helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum-Luvs-Trials Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Get a sharp grind and get the yellows.Best decesion of your life mate if you do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krisboats Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Also. There not not the same as the standard hs33 reds are they? cause i have them and there not that good.The only thing similar is that they're designed for magura/dengura rim brakes. The compound is entirely different to the magura koolstops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
