Kieran Morrison Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Hey, in the need of new pads 'cos my heatsink yellows have dissapeared. I know about the pad review section blah blah blah just there is no reviews of phat pads after the newest ones were released. Can some people tell me the pros and cons of these pads? Is the bite good is my main question? And would they be good to hold my 7stone body? haha. Cheers guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bikeperson45 Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 pad review section Is there a need for about three pads threads a day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran Morrison Posted October 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Here we go again, another pad vs pad arguement. No i'm just asking for the pros and cons of this pad, not "whats better this pad or this pad". I dont want anyone posting "get lgms" or something because im only interested in phat pads.

If there's no comments about Phat Pads, then ask and hope to get a reply. No need for a seperate topic really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mata22 Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 i used...and still using pha pads in plastic backing that mike gave to me 2 and a half years ago when he wisited croatia. in my case they didnt work perfect strait out f box, they needed short time to bed in and then started to work perfect, as somebody said, same performance on dry and wet, even mud and dust. thing i have noticed is that they didnt produce same sound on all kind of rims. when i got them i was using dx 32 and sound was wery loud, and then i switched to echo ( i thinh 2009...maybe 08) and they lost the sound, but remain performance, now i have try all hole rim and they have perfect performance but sound is not so loud like it was on dx 32. ( i know it also depends on what king of grind you use them) about bite, i mounted them on fresh grind and they had great bite on fresh gring ( medium) and bite remaind great as grind becoming dead wear life is one of the best thing, i use them almost 2,5 years ( to be honest i did put them in front for some time so it stopped wearing to much...but....) and now they are " finaly" dead with 1 mm left i hope i coud help, and forgive me if ( i know i did) did grammar mistakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dann2707 Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 I think these pads threads are only good for a few things but at the end of the day.. the best idea would be to get some and see what you think of them and compare them with the others you have tried.
