Guest Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Hey people, just wanted to start a thread as i keep wondering what pads would be super grippy but hard wearing for a harsh grind, im running koxx browns at the mo but theyre getting worn down and starting to slip, my mate just gave me some plasmatic like pads, Atomz i believe but theyre for none to medium grind, where as mines harsh, and i can see them wearing down in about 5 minutes haha, the other thing was, does anybody know where i can get hold of some tar? ive got the tinyest piece left thats the size of a pea haha, cheers!

SamKidney Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 find a way to get your grind worn and get yourself some Heatsink Yellows in the CNC backings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Why advise to wear a grind down? Grind and as said above, some pads that work great with one like Phatpads, LGM's or Belaeys. Your brake will be great if all is set up well and square with a decent bleed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 brother replying on my account DONT wear the grind off. As dan said, TNN LGM or what I said. Yellows or Coustsinks. Beleays are good but seem to eat grinds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azarathal Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 brother replying on my account DONT wear the grind off. As dan said, TNN LGM or what I said. Yellows or Coustsinks. Beleays are good but seem to eat grinds. +1 to the LGM's Aren't Coustsinks for a very light grind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 guy rides them on a harsh grind by us haha. Seem to be ok so long as you done drag the brake. Lgm really for harsh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oooops lol. Just save your self some money get some croco browns and when you get the cut the corners off and skim a grinder over the face of the pad keeping it flat. They are sick on a harsh grind and got amazing wear life.PS. Croco Yellow but dont run a booster with them because they loose there bite!

Guest Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 (edited) Nice one guys, just looked at my rim and realised my grind has worn down a considerable amount so probably between medium to harsh, so might get some tryall croco browns once theyre in stock, tried looking for phatt pads but i click on buy or on the picture and it tells me the links broken! And Bonham, see you tomorrow! Edited February 19, 2011 by jimbam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PebbleWrestler Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) running caelifera tango's rear/harsh grind and plaz crm's up front/light grind worn almost totally smooth...both brakes honk, but the front is about twice as loud as the back! used to run crm's on the rear as well but they were getting eaten up pretty quick. is tnn ---> the old plazmatic guys? or did tnn just rediscover the CRM compound?
