Cresswell_d Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 What pads are the best for a sharp grind?Daz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 It kinda depends on a few things - mainly the colour of the pads.Rock Pads n Blue are great on a grind, as are Try-All Croco Browns.V!Z Yellows will wear out really quickly.Koxx Browns are now discontinued but the Croco Pads are an evolution of them and we have found them to be slightly better.CheersAdam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyb Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 I have found the crocos to be unbelievable, i thought it couldnt get much better than koxx yellow but it does! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Croco Browns... Can't really go wrong with the old brown ones, but the newer ones offer more bite I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamR28 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 How come they discontinued them? Because the Crocos are the evolution of them (ie. better). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben John-Hynes Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Because the Crocos are the evolution of them (ie. better).So will there be a wide range of Crocos, as with Bloxx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Rankin Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 There is no better pad IMO than a Coust! Knocks the socks off anything i have ridden with, followed by croco's. Mt mate toby had them and they were sick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy_k Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Whats the difference between the yellow and the brown croco's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 So will there be a wide range of Crocos, as with Bloxx?I believe so, but see below:Whats the difference between the yellow and the brown croco's?Just the colour pigment, but it does appear to make a little difference to performance as shown across the Koxx Bloxx range.

aener Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Phat pads are excellent Great on a grind, but don't go TOO overboard - I did by accident, and one of mine is wearing a bit quicker than I'd like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 First ride with my PhatPads today, at first I really wasn't impressed, no noise, bite or hold, but they appeared to be get better towards the end, I was told they'd need to wear in but didn't relaise the wear rate was so slow!I've got to move them again though, my wheel wasn't fully in the dropouts when I set them up, so when I rode today my back wheel settled in the dropouts, and now one pads rubs and the other is miles away.
