Duncy H Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 Pads: Phatpads in phatpad backings and heatsink backingsTime used: I think in total maybe 2 1/2 monthsRim used: Try allGrind: YesCeraminc: NoBrake used: MaguraWhat is your opinion of a working brake: Hold on anything and rather good biteHow do they compare to previous pads you have used: Rather good but need setting up right, used croco yellows, echo greens, rock pad blues, black and red maggie pads lol.Review: I found that these pads needed to be set up perfectly to perform well. However whatever the set up they had awesome bite. On a really really deep harsh grind they held well but they soon seemed to just not hold at all barely. Although to be honest I could have done with maybe more of a booster fitted and my grinds aren't the best in the world. As for in the wet the perfomance is not effected and do well.Oh and the backings are very impressive!!Pads: Try-all croco yellows in phatpad backingsTime used: 2 monthsRim used: Try-allGrind: YesCeraminc: NoBrake used: MaguraWhat is your opinion of a working brake: Hold on anything and rather good biteHow do they compare to previous pads you have used: Best pads I am yet to have used but haven't tryed much. I have used phatpads, adamant white pads, echo greens, rock pad blues, black and red maggie pads lol.Review: These were rather impressive, better hold than the phatpads but not massively, they perform across more set ups imo. The bite was rather pretty dam good. I can reccomend these but only because I haven't used much else. One thing though, the wear rate was not so impressive so again I am going to try something new.Ordered some TNN LGM refills to fit into my phatpad backings and after a couple of weeks I will try and find time to write up a review.

Mark W Posted September 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Pads: TNN LGMTime used: Few daysRim used: Atomz?Grind: YesCeraminc: NoBrake used: MaguraWhat is your opinion of a working brake: Awesome bite, awesome hold.How do they compare to previous pads you have used: Best ever! I seriously don't understand how people can't like these pads. Great bite, great hold, all good. If they aren't working for you, it's you that's wrong, not the pads!

Tom Booth Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Yeah, the shop you buy them from can have a massive affect on the performance.It's always such a ball ache when you post something like that, because I really want to pick you up and ask why you have to pick up on every-f**king-thing people say, but then I know I'd be as bad as you so with regret I have to let it go.Pads: Croco BrownsTime used: 2/3 Months... Rim used: Onza RonnieGrind: YesBrake used: Hs33What is your opinion of a working brake: Hold, not to grabbyHow do they compare to previous pads you have used: Best I've used, previous pads - CRM's, Koxx Reds, Heatsink red/yellows, Onza lime's/citrus.Review: They work, whatever it would seem, dusty, wet, hot, cold they just work consistantly and very well. On a medium/light grind they aren't mega grabby and modulate quite well but will hold very well! Really got confidence in this brake, very consistant!

LukasMcNeal Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Pads: Koxx bloxx reds in plastic backs. Time used: 1.5 monthsRim used: zhiGrind: Yes, mediumish grindBrake used: MaguraWhat is your opinion of a working brake: good bite, lock and hold. How do they compare to previous pads you have used: beats my plaz pads!Review:At first wear rate was a few mm now they have basically stopped wearing anymore! They have good bite but the hold I would only give 6/10 as for the bite 8/10. Overall 7.5/10 because they are fairly cheap and last ages!

Muel Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 That's the first time I've ever heard that said....My mate had some on an Echo rim, best brake I've ever used, there was no slip at all, you didn't even need to squeeze the lever hard, the bite was instant, and it worked better in the rain than the dry.I've also known several people from on here that swear by them.

Ben John-Hynes Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Worked great on my mod just not aswel on my stock!'cause DX32s are the best grinding rims out there. TT ones aren't so good, you'll need to be more vicious with the grinder on the TT rim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twentyinch Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Why do i seem to be having no luck with my TNN LGM pads? Iv spents ages setting the pads up square, used new cutting disks on the rim left wheel in frame to iliminate contamination and there still nothing special.Im using a monty rim however, Something to do with the material there made of maybe?
