Getting some new pads before cadwell and I thought I'd ask people views on the best pads...I'd prefer not to spend the earth and I'm not too bothered about bite from cold....just want them to be fade free...

cheers

or if your not bothered about the brake dust eating paint, the ds3000 are even better

DS2500. They last well as well. Checked mine before Elvington and after 18 months and 10k miles including Haynes and Anglesey and they weren't even half worn. :shock:

Pagid fast road

Pretty good from cold, and awesome when hot.

Haven't had any fade at bruntingthorpe, anglesey, and donnington, done those 3 days plus abut 15k road miles and they are about 60% worn
