Title: Which front brake pads
Post by: Bonzodave on 09 January 2017, 12:49:53 am
Hi guys just a quick one which I bet you've all heard before, which brake pads are best to use GG or HH? Or can anyone recommend a good brand to someone who doesn't hang around on a bike but not a nutter! Lol

The Galfer price is for one caliper set.


The SBS price is for 2 pairs.

Semi sintered are the best option I reckon. Organic gives good feel but are a bit soft for me and sintered are too hard and will wear your rotors quicker.
I'm running galfers at the moment and I'm verry happy with them, I had EBC previously- excellent pads too but a bit pricey.

Goldfren are not good at all in my opinion.
You could quite easily do a lot better anyway.

Have EBC fitted to all my bikes and cars (discs & pads on cars)


Bikes have HH
