*gentlydoesit Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Give them a ring can't go wrong at 7 quid I've found them as good as any pad out there !I got put off when the backings got a mention, I've since bought some tnn's.. at thrice the cost! Think the pads would be as good in a cnc backing? Could be a good source of refills. While were here.. up for riding malvern bud? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isitafox Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Yup, which is still called Mark Anthonys. The only bike shop I've ever come across to refuse to lend you a pump in an emergency! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilf Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 We see one of the 'mechanics' who works there when out riding sometimes, thinks he's some sort of engineering god. Oh and apparently everything that Hope makes is utter shite... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I used to use these pads, as said worked well but lasted a month max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Cox Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Used to ride the rimjams, were very good pads! Never managed to top the koxx bloxx browns, favourite pads of all time! Ben 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*gentlydoesit Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Why did they die out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 TNNs came along. I swapped my LGMs for a set of koxx red pads (pretty similar to browns) and they worked about as well as the LGMs, although not as good in the wet. At the end of the day all the top pads are pretty similar, just have quirks that make them suited to certain people / set ups / riding styles. Having said that, I loved the koxx browns (ran one brown and one tarty adam black pad for aggges, awesome) and the reds too, but bought a set of yellows and they were the worst pads I've ever used (including Monty Orange pads). No matter what I did with them, they were shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
