    Carbon Lorraine RC5+ pads finally fitted!

    Finally got my new Brembo High Carbon discs and Carbon Lorraine RC5+ pads fitted to the cup racer last night - ready for Snetterton on Saturday.

    Had the discs plated to try and hold the rust of the non braking surfaces while its parked up. Pet hate of mine is rusty discs.

    The old pads donated the anti rattle clips which were cleaned up and repainted!


    Are there any guide lines on bedding in these pads???

    General bedding-in procedure (as per instructions with Pagid RS-29s) from memory .......
    A few gentle brakes to take the surface off discs and pads, then 3x hard stops from 60mph to 30mph followed by 3x hard stops from 90mph to 50mph, allow them to cool completely then you're good to go. Repeat the process if you don't think it's done the job.
