Echo-Scott Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Have a look through Here I personaly would recommend rock pads in blue, great pads, but you are goin to get many people saying what pad they like the best but no definitive answer as to what pads are the best.

Ben John-Hynes Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 The problem may be that your rim or pads are contaminated,Take some sand paper to your padsAnd run some lighter fluid on a cloth around your rim.Then rebleed your brake, should be all good then!

Echo-Scott Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Water tends to be the choice of many riders nowadays for the quick feel of it. Fluid on the other hand does not feel as quick as water but there is nothing wrong with either. Water is probably your best choice though as it is easy to bleed a brake with water and it is alot cheaper than buying oil every time you need to re-bleed your brake.

They didn't hold, and had a HORRID noise. EDIT: I lie, they did hold, did not bite. Edited May 23, 2008 by Benjaminge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
