Paperclip Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Off topic, why are people overlooking phat pads thesedays? There still one of the best pads out there for wet and dry weather and In my eyes they last much longer than all three of your choices.

TRD Posted September 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Well, i think imma get me some Heatsinks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD Posted September 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Also, I hear Coust pads are amazing! Do they have great sound, nice bite and are good on a grind? so my choices are: Heatsink alu backing or Coust pads with Heatsink backing which pad?!?!?

forteh Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Heatsink alu backing or Coust pads with Heatsink backing I have coustsinks on the front and heatsink yellows on the back, they both work very well however because of the setup (vee brake front) the coustsinks dont bite that hard, hold is good though; for me the yellows have superb bite and hold at all times. Rear rim has a medium grind and front has a light. I cant see me using any other pad than heatsinks, they just seem to work for me and my setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tryallmaster Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Each pad has it's benefits…we all know that.. However, if you are looking for a pad that has ultimate locking power and truly innovative that Neil T, TRA, Stan Shaw, Ben Travis, Ben Slinger, Kenny Belaey, Joe Brewer, Ali C (to name a few) all use TNN is the only choice… What terrain do you mostly ride?

flatpro Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 I've had coust pads in the past (the standard ones without alu backings) and they didn't perform as well as the tnn pads I use right now. just my experience.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pengsmelly Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Used all those pads. And i think heatsinks were the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mods Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 My tnn pads have a amazing bite. The hold on them is pretty poor. I wouldnt buy them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guilherme Magno! Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 i like very much the heatsink, never ride TNN. then vote heatsink XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRING BACK PHAT I think the pads aren't being considered as they haven't been formerly available for quite a while now. This is changing though.
