Brake pads
#17
I'm trying out the SBS ceramics on the rear and am not especially sold on them. The best thing about them is that there is very little dust compared to EBC organics but they somehow don't feel as progressive as the EBCs. Could be a matter of getting used to them, but already considering going back to the old ones. Would be interested in hearing what your verdicts are Darrsi & Stedman8.

Got SBS sintered up front and very happy so far, quite a bit of dust but they don't seem too harsh on the discs and provide excellent braking. They cost £33 so not far off the bargain Galfers which were unavailable at the time.

Most folk go for sintered on the front but organics usually provide a better feel and smoother braking. For road use they're probably more than sufficient but whether you like them or not is down to preference. Sintered's supposed benefits are having superior wet weather performance, don't need chemical bedding in like organics, and superior power in general but I had EBC organics up front for a while and were quite happy with them and didn't notice a massive difference tbh.
