Ross Gardner Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 i put some GU pads on today, they were really hard and gripped really well, then i added a light grind and they worked beautifully but after about an hour they had worn down loads! but after that they didnt wear down at all, so just telling you incase it happens to you aswell!

Bendee Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 Some pads wear down abit then they settle down once bedded in. This is just another pad that does the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wright Pads Posted December 28, 2005 Report Share Posted December 28, 2005 Were these the pink ones mate? I've heared of mixed veiw on them to be honest and i'm not happy with them ether.The reason the run down so fast is probs the way there cast, we've (wright pads) have encountered this on out 1st set of our own pads and many other manafactures of pads for the HS33. Our problem now is sorted, no rapid wear rate just one contunies amount of wear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tank_rider Posted December 28, 2005 Report Share Posted December 28, 2005 what type of casting would that be your using Pete? Sand, die? and how do your metal pads hold up? I would have thought rim wear would have been the major problem!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

totaltrials Posted December 28, 2005 Report Share Posted December 28, 2005 What! It's because he said casting instead of moulding.phil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tank_rider Posted December 28, 2005 Report Share Posted December 28, 2005 What! Well if Pete's casting pads they must be made from metal, rubber is moulded not cast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
