Pads: Heatsink Batch B Time used: 3 weeks (around 50 hours) Rim used: X721(new D521) with a fresh grind to start with (allowing to wear with the pads) Grind: Yes/No Yes Ceraminc: Yes/No No Brake used: Magura/V Magura HS33 with standard booster and lever What is your opinion of a working brake: great Hold when needed (ie edge of a drop) yet plenty of modulation when needed. How do they compare to previous pads you have used: better bite than koxx bloxx and better hold than plazmatics. Review: i used them for the first weekend at shipley glen in damp weather for around 6 hours and they never slipped and felt really responsive, yet when i measured how much they had worn it was less than 1mm. the second weekend i was riding shipley again but very wet this time, again a great response from brake at all times and all conditions the sunday was the tyketrial at back cowm quarry(expert 26" route) in the soaking wet and very muddy filthy competition conditions. i was really impressed with how well the brake was working through out the comp. despite me deliberatly getting my wheels as dirty as possible by jumping in puddles and riding through bogs. at the end of the day the brake started to slightly fall back in performance but it out lasted all my expectations. this weekend just past was spent riding shipley glen and keighley street both at which the brake felt perfectly biting and modulating when required. i have also been using the same bike to ride the 7 mile round trip to work and back every weekday over the past three weeks and there is plenty of meat left on the pads. overall top pads till the bitter end(well almost but not many people ride that long in those conditions) well done HEATSINK for such great pads :) Bucky.
