the judge Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 (edited) Have a search, there's loads of topics like this.Also take a look in the pad reviews section in trials chat.I've heard only good reviews of majic pads, I'd take a look at them. Good performance and cheap as chips Edited March 12, 2006 by the judge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wigs_06 Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 hi i would say crms they are well good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 I've bought a pair of worn koxx browns, and they are amazing. My mate rides with coust pads, and his back brake is awesome, but also the Majic pads i have heard a lot about. i think the websites this... MJCycles.com cheap, and supposed to be as good, maybe better than the coust pads, which are awesome pads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayneone Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Zoo! pads for a smooth rim tar, or for a superior brake that wont last long run them on a light grind, i am and there amazin.After i wear my Zoo! pads down ill be switching to the new coust pads or the majic pads depending on my mood.If you dont grind you rim please do! its so so so so easy i was once scared of doing it but i gave it ago and its so simple theres no bite or kickback from the grinder you wont go though your im at all, give it a go its widely uesd for a reason!

king_kennythe1st Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 koxx bloxx blues. recently got em been out in the snow and they aint slipped at all. good in dry too. dont know about longevity though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigs_gu Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 i would say crms or the mj cycles magic pads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-BAD Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 koxx bloxx are known to be the best performance and make a few compounds, but if your on a budget buy some majic pads, i run them for a while nice bite, even with a deadish grind and they held. i ran some plazmos too, they not too crackin in the wet, in the dry their ace though. my heatsink blues did'nt last very long at all, i could'nt get them to bite properly, made a nice sound though. if i was you, i would go for the koxx greens/blues their the same compound but diffrent colour they mint in wet and ace in dry, you'l need a grind for these though but their mint! hope i have helped with your decision Liam...

KMT Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 This (home made coust):I haven't used it because i got it yesterday, but i know that it lasts long on a grinded rim (minimum a half year).But i won't grind my dx32 if it works well without it..

mini Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Hi, in my eyes Coust'sink CNC pads are amazing. They have a really solid feel and a little reassuring squeak.Thanks from Stuart. :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro Braker Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 PLAZMATIC CRMs . I use them on a smooth rim on the rear and set up properly they work perfectly. 1 thing, they dont work on a smooth rim in the wet. On the front (it may sound wierd) I have a Heatsink Blue as my friend was giving it away unused and a koolstop on the other side. Works well and can ride natural and pull some front wheel tricks with confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkshire Dale Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 ur prob best runnin zoo pads with a light grind on the rim! if not then use tar! works for me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewannnn Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 I have heard the heatsink reds(and felt) are extremely good on a grind, and have an ok wear rate.I would also recommend the koxx bloxx's blue or green as they hold immensely on a grind in both wet and dry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_eyre Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 personally mate i would go for plazmatic pads on a grind. it works a treat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flower Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 koxx greens are quite good. i found they get better the more water and shit get on them. Weird but there very good. Zoo pads on a grind is sick and the good old maggy red pads are the tits. Every one slags them off but mine were mad. oh well, enjoy search next time.
