To your spec of course.

The content is there, though there a few points that you might or might not want to take into consideration:

  • What sets your pads apart from any other brand?

  • Usually, a company will refer to themselves as "we", as opposed to saying
    As a rider myself I understand the importance and demands of a brake and its performance. I believe I have got the best possible compound to make sure that braking is spot on.

  • Images like this don't sell the product particularly well

  • Try knocking up a site yourself, rather than using templates. It makes things look more professional and serious, which you need to put across if you ever want people to pay for your services

  • Make it clearer what the product is. You don't know yourself what colour the pads will be, you don't state pad material, the optimal braking surface etc. If you don't know this, why on earth would anyone with even less knowledge of the kit pay for it?!

seeing as this is a buisiness, i hope you have contacted Tom and Danny about advertising costs?

also i think you are going into the wrong market mate, the pad market is flooded at the moment, everyone has there pads they stick to... Be it: Heatsinks, plazzies, koxx, rock pads etc.

that video doesnt really show the performane of the pads....i mean koolstops on a smooth rim woul;d have stood up to that...

get some proper riding in that proves the pad performance....if you can then ill buy some providing you sell rubber only and at a resonable price

the beZSorry about the video, that was just to give a general idea of the sound and show that the pads work etc.

Like kris said there isnt many out but the ones that are out are very good, like the neco reds which are with out a dout one of the best ive used. Highly recomend them!

I will try get a proper vid done tonight, but like i said it was just gor general sound etc.

You have put some good effort into the website with some details and layouts etc..

But to be honest after watching that vid of swindle-end the pads sound absoloute horrible no hard feelings or anything just sounds like when you combined magura blacks, smooth rim with a bit of tar.
