Erm, there's about 5 different pads there?

And stop saying lol in every single post when there's nothing funny, and stop making a new topic for every little thing, none of the pads there are expensive so just buy them a find out!

/rant

Yeah i meant has anyone used either of the 5 there..

sorry about saying lol all the time, its a really old habit.

And i made a new topic because usually i get faster replies, its easer to see if someone has replied and easier to follow

^ look i didnt say Lol! xD

i might buy some and if they suck just give them away and get some koxx bloxx later

My Friends has these and he uses them on a smooth rim with a bit of tar. They are really cheap and are surprisinly good for the price you pay. But i would suggest V!Z HS33 pads (the £15.66 ones), because they hold like no other pad i've ever used.

i think im gunna go for the greens, im gunna buy buy 4 pairs so if they wear down quick then i have lots of spares and if they suck ill sell them on and buy some koxx bloxx

as long as they are better than magura stock pads im happy :)

Koxx Bloxx are basically Try-All Croco browns. They only work well on a grind. If you want to use Croco's use the red ones they are much better on a smooth rim than the browns. But you will have to use some tar.

You said it!

No, get some serious pads, like heatsink yellows! They work incredibly good on smooth. Or get some Coust! pads...

It's up to you really.

Hey my mate uses rock green pads from tarty bikes and they seem emence and of course their designed for a unground rim and their reasonably cheep at £15.66 but if you do choose to go for a grind then get tnn like me and every one else (the grind that is) yes their £28 but worth their weight in gold :)
