mat hudson Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 the monty pads will wear out in a day, my ones did, they wernt that awesome either. majic pads way out perform them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zipper Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I dont like the monty pads (short) because mine came off the backings (both eventually) and so did my mates. Although when they did work they worked well. My other mate has had my old ones because i did not trust them anymore(they were brand new) and he is still going strong with them and had them for 3 weeks! For my grind i love koxx brown pads as they hold imensely!I havent seen much realy about the bubblegum pads so im soon to be trying some myself Cheers Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewannnn Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 in another post i heard that the bubblegum pads arent too great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squince Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 If you want to get an easy good brake, get plazmatic..they work no matter what the set up But set up well, majic pads, toxsin pads and koxx pads work beast cheers andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I use th e 35mm monty one's on the rear and I havn't had any problem as of yet, been running them about a month at least now.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jowster Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 (edited) to be honest, i would go for the koxx reds, the life of those pads are just amazing! their expensive though, so if you don't want to be splashing out on expensive pads,i reconmend MaJic pads or heatsink reds, their not far off the koxx bloxx. i'm running MaJic pads and their perfectly fine,my friend is running heatsink reds and i have never seen his brake slip! so either way your best bet is koxx bloxx,heatsink reds or Majic pads! to get the ultimate performance from these pads, use a nice fresh grind!

cvtrial Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I think the Monty pads are to hard, I didn't trust the Monty pads as well as I trusted Zoo! or the Heatsink, but the Heatsink is a much better chose!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Street Lee Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I've got Montys (Orange ones) on the back. They were pants when I had a dead grind but they were pretty shitty with oxide off the rim. Running them on a ceramic now and they're awesome!

Fishy Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 I had mine for a day with a fresh stanley knife grind, and they wore down to nothing by the end of the day. They held well, but they're like powder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted February 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Could someone link me to where i could get majic pads, bit off topic but they should make pixie pads! pause when you have a rim grind you would get pixie dust hehe, i'm so random!

They held well, but they're like powder.You talking bout them ones? They are the ones I have and mine are nothing like powder..... They seem to wear fairly slowly from my experiance. Unless the compound has changed or something, I don't know...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat hudson Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 i think it has changed. onzaboys first pair lasted nearley a year, and my pair and his second pair lasted at max 2 rides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Yeah those ones, but i did drag the brake a lot, lol, i got turned on by the sound. But i was supprised by the wear rate, was pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
