Brake pads...

[Stereo]

What are the best after market brakepads?

Looking for:

1. Affordable
2. Dont fade under heat
3. Last a decent time
4. Dont increase wear on disks overly much

Obviously sinted pads brake better but they also wear out your disks a lot quicker...

Inflation or Ive been had but retail for same now $54.00. IMHO are harder pads that seem to handle the heat better with less fade.
From Eastern Europe I believe very exotic.

sounds abt right..most pads are abt $50-$60 a pair..for each side...

Just reviving an old thread. Will be needing a new set of pads on the 12, and want to know people's opinions on the best pads to use. I'm no racer, just want something better than standard that won't eat discs up.
Does this Craig white have a website?

I use these wickedly good carbon based pads that Randal at Road Rocket in West Melbourne sells. They are good value, work on the road and the track, wear well, resist fade throughout races, long rides and also over time (I've had them in the 9 for some time, and the 6 also-they use the same pads now ).

Where did you buy them from?

Whites Racing, there on our sponsors page...

You won't need the racing S3 but he does others.

I got the S3 racing pads for my 6r and whoa they stop the bike quite well, ive already gone through a set, didnt hesitate to get another set of them either.
