t-bird tom Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Well these pads were good whilst they lasted, now after 3 and a half months, this is what they look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Pads are a wear and tear part that need replacing here and there. What rim surface were you using them on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikee Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Did you use them on a grind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Vandart Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 LOL I have just realised I have never worn a set o pads out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t-bird tom Posted August 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 i used them on smooth rim for quite sometime, then i put them on the front on the lightest grind ever . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 ...and you're surprised that they've worn down? Matt; I've never worn out a set of pads either, unless you count the Heatsink Reds I ran for 2 years and still had 4mm of material left when I sold the bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben John-Hynes Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 So why are you posting a topic up complaining ? Haha, exactly what I was gonna say. You didn't need to post this, as 99% of the trials population know not to use them on a grind, and the other 1% are obviously so stupid that logic would suggest they can't even read the topic.

t-bird tom Posted August 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 How did they perform in those 3 months? Good lock/bite and hold? Noise? Amazing best front brake pads i've ever used sharp bite, nice hold, lock very quickly and they are very noisy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
