Luke Rainbird Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 My Joypads haven't given me as much joy as I would have liked, though I suspect it's probably down to my shite grind Will regrind some time (Plymouth ride probably...) and try again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harmertrials Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 (edited) Go for the new rim jam v3 reds pads from tarty, they're only £18 +p&p and for that you get 7.5mm of pad and a 3mm backing recess coupled with Loctite glue specially formulated for use with these two materials makes for excellent adhesion. Also the backings are powder coated alloy! good stuff Edited March 19, 2007 by harmertrials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harmertrials Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 They really are quality pads, even my mate is getting them and he already has ali-c's, go for them mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Coustsinks all the way. Used loads of pads in the past and I just can't believe how Coustsinks can be so much better than anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razzy Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Mate I would just go for BLUE ROCK PADS straight away but unless the new RimJam pads are and better then just go for rock pads. They wont let you down! I am being honest here and i have had my pads for over 2 months and I can't see that they have worn down at all! £18 from Tarty is well worth the money.

Bearded Midget Posted March 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 i am going to have a good look at all the pads on tarty again and especially look at the ones that have been pointed out to me. thank you every one for your comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamR28 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Rock Pads (Blue on a grind) for great performance wet and dry, RimJam V3s for dry weather (also give slightly stiffer lever feel due to the alloy backings, and they're LOUD!).If you don't ride in the wet then the Plaz CRMs are worth a look too - the compound has been unchanged for around 9 years and now and it's still amazing!

paulbell123 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 hi i would go for plaz pads, i and two of my friends run them on a harsh grind and they are mint and they work well in wet too. one of my mate got some red rock pads about three weeks ago on a harsh grind and he said they crap, and has now bought some new plaz pads. hope i helped paul bell.
