rupertsub2003 Posted August 20, 2005 Report Share Posted August 20, 2005 Hi just wondering if some people can reccomend some brake pads for hs33's on a non ground rim i was thinking of getting some heatsinks but are zoo pads better ? just some opinions please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayneone Posted August 20, 2005 Report Share Posted August 20, 2005 I like zoo! pads better mate but the only real way to tell is to use both, but i say get the zoo! pads first and then try the heatsinks later on when the zoo!'s wear out.

Biff... Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 I recommend Heatsink honigs or Zoo pads best way for a smooth rim. Cheers Kyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatsink Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Hi! The Honigs are now out of stock. If you're looking for cheap pads for smooth rims, then I may have an alternative. I have some other surplus pads available, the "Konig" pads (red) which I was testing and let some go out as paid for prototypes. We were focussing on how well they lasted on grinds, and whilst we were looking in that direction it appears now that we may have overlooked their strengths on smooth rims. This could make them an amazing choice for a front rim (often smooth) and for those of you who haven't ground your rear rim. If testing indicates that they perform to at least an equal level as other popular pads for smooth rims, then and only then, will I make some available. Cheers, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 (edited) 2 years thats a record! I know also been ridng with um for i think 2 1/2 years he runs ceramic rim and his work amazingly, but i would go for heatsinks to be onest way way cheaper and problt better quilty. :P Edited August 25, 2005 by Gap To Manual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
