Re: Value for money
I've decided to leave the current disc on it until I need a new rear tyre. I just put a set of Ferrodo pads on it.

Re: Value for money
That impressive as the wear rate is so even on the pads. that is assuming those pads are a one side matching set ??

If you really want to save money, you should turn 'em over and use the other side
