NileBrown™ Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Heatsink Reds or Koxx browns in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel C Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 coustsinks all the way bit pricey but will out stand any other pads on the market they work in the wet and have a great waer life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forteh Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Im using heatsink cnc reds on a light (I think) grind, its not particularly sharp though and going a bit dull because of the tryall cheese aluminium Bite and hold are good, with a proper grind (I held the grinder at the wrong angle ) the bite would be better.Tested in the rain this evening and they seemed to hold aswell, not quite such positive bite though.Have a trawl through the pad reviews thread and make your won mind up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larrybailey~ Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 Hello,I have always used plazmatic yellow on my front brake without a grind, never gave me any trouble all though they do not work very well in the rain i found. I have recently changed my front brake to a disc (Avid BB7) has given no problems come rain or shine.On my back brake (Magura HS33) i have found that koxx bloxx browns with a light grind has always worked well for me in all weather. i did use rock pads blues for a while but did not find them as effective as the koxx bloxx browns.I also think that brake pads are personal prefrence to how the individual likes to have there brake set up.larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Manning Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 Magura standard black pads are a beast If that fails, then Heatsink CNC red's !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
!Harris! Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 In my opinion I would Say Koxx Bloxx are amazing , especially Koxx reds as i run them, amazing power in the dry never slipped , and if you have a grind they dont slip in the wet either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cai Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 Plaz CRM/ CRV- dry weather/ summerDefo!CRM's for maguras, or CRV's for v-brakes.There amazing on a light, all the way down to a dead grind (mines on a dead atm, and its outstanding).Defenatly recomend them - there much better than the Zoo!, Atomz, and Neco Reds that I've tryed (all on smooth).

Lokoxx Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 I think the green tryall pads (coustieller) are a very good decision....I`ve used them and I can promise you they work very very well!Here in Spain they cost around 30 euros..Good Luck!
