Ben Geary Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 The rim should fit, as for the pads i'm sure it would still hit the rim with half of the pad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_travis Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 The pads last freaking ages, had mine in a good two months now on a rough grind, in mud, wet, snow, rain, dry, sand, everything and i had mine cut back to around 4mm and they are only just wearing out now......Excellent pads and the CNC backings will provide really good power through the brake.Thats my answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpson Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 I run a ronnie in my control with heatsink blues dont know bout the red CNC 1s but cant see what difference there would be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigman Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 A ronnie will deffiantly fit Ash......Also, the CNC backings on the heatsink pads is thicker than on a standard pad, meaning that it will be closer to the rim than a normal pad, so in theory it should give you no problems with setting up once worn....I have a set of CNC red pads and have been running them on an 06 echo rim with a grind which was first put on just after christmas and they are still awsome, and they have not even worn 1mm yet, which IMO is pretty darn good.....I have not actualy tried them on a fresh grind yet as the grind i have got them on now was 2-3 weeks old before i put on the pads.So it is a deffiante yes to both your questions.Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
