Callum219 Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Hi, Been looking for a while to buy some new pads, I have a medium Grind-ed rim? which would bite better? I'm looking for performance and durability Thanks Callum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Get some trialtech pads on there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Get some trialtech pads on there! This. But out of the two you mentioned, the Heatsinks are the ones that will stand up to a grind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thinkdougie Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Ive ran echo pads before and they wore away after 2 rides with a grind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny00135 Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 I ran a mangled yellow on one side and an echo pad on the other (mid ride dig around the bag) Yellow held up... echo was reduced to a couple of mm in about 15 mins on a new grind... Yellows your best bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Out of the suggestions mentioned, Trialtechs. If your planning on spending on yellows with the CNC backings, Id use that money on any of TNN's pads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peggysue Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Yellows matey .... Excellent pads , or tnn adm . They are my new favourite . Stop you on a dime , and that's coming from me being over 18 stone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum219 Posted December 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Cheers Guys! Think I'm going to purchase some trialtech ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashleys sugden Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 echo whites are not up to anything, not even on a smooth rim, ive used yellows (they didnt last for me very long), blues (which were incredible), tnn lgms (worked for a bit, two pairs of them) if anything id go for rockman blues in cnc backings, defiantly best pads ive ever had, and not problems, when i bought my bike, they came on, and the guy said he had had the same pads on for over a year, and they are still on my bike now with at least a quarter pad material left, and still with lots of noise, i have some new rockman blues waiting to be put on once these have gone, but honestly, if you have the money and you want cnc backings, defo rockmans or cousts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
