trialkid Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 well now that i am getting a pitbull i have to run a magura, i have been running a V on the rear for the last 8 months. before i used the V i had plazmatic CRMs but never on a grind as i run now. also i have heard they dont hold too well. i know everyone is going to say heatsink, but i dont want them. what i want to ask is, what would plaz spanish fly pads be like on a medium grind. also are the new koxx blocks colours there because they are different compounds, if so which are best or who has experience form the yellows or reds. i know its another crap topic about pads but i really dont know what to do. yes i searched....... thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Arnold Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 the best pads i have used so far have been plazmatic crms, they are stupidly good :blink: (ive tried koxx bloxx, heatsink blues, megamo, monty) i run a medium grind.

GuyJames Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 I have experience of both brown and yellow bloxx. The brown last forever even on a harsh grind but the yellows get eaten up in under 6months. Both make great brakes but the browns last longer. About reds I am unsure :blink:" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialskid Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 the spanish fly are the clear ones arent they, if not forget this. i used the spanish flys for about 5 days on a medium grind. they did actually hold well, they have got an annoying squeek when they bite but least you know they have bit, if you get me. they wear down really badly and for the padlife/grip ratio you get from the pad isnt very good really. i wouldnt recommend them, get some koxx reds nial...they are the best pads i have ever used...

Janson Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 They're good pads. Same as Echo and Viz pads, so when you see all the kids with the new Viz pads which are 'superior to all other pads ont market', they're just the good ol' Spanishfly. I had some on my rear vee. They like fresh grinds, and last about a season of comps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munkee Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 I've heard of the pad material kince scrunching up and coming off the backings! that would be impressive! the lot i had were the ones that wore down funny/too much material/old design backings. The new ones should be ok from what joe says .. but then again hes loved them all :turned: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotchDave Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 None of the new ones have come off the backings as far as I know and I have seen at least 2 sets of standard maggie pads coming off the backings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
