Matthews Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 (edited) (Y) Hey all I've seen the new coust website (which is pretty dam nice) and on it , it say that the pads are now avaliable and was woundering if they are actully selling them because i know they have had some problems getting the backings. Sorry for the waste of space i've only just noticed the small print and they are NOT avaliable :"> sorry Lewis Matthews Edited January 11, 2005 by Team Matthews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cultiv8ed ::Chris:: Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 i have tried the second lot and there where just plain shite. Both of the material you use is also just shite wears out in about an hour and feels squidy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FAT~DAN Posted January 15, 2005 Report Share Posted January 15, 2005 (edited) when i had mine i put them on and the plastic bit snapped off :o then the pads wore down in 2 days i wasnt happy not saying that theyre bad but id never use them again im starting to think that i think we should stick to using the proper pad makers like plaz and koxx etc Dan edit they also wobbled as well (Y) Edited January 15, 2005 by Brisa~Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScotchDave Posted January 16, 2005 Report Share Posted January 16, 2005 Ok lads leave chris alone, ok his pads had some design flaws which I mentioned at the time, but they have all now been resolved, I myself have been running a set of his blues for ages on a ceramic rim and they've got ages left.

Nick Garland Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 Ive got RimJam Blues and they work amazing, dont move around in the cylinder at all. Had them for 2 weeks now and theres no sign of wear. Why would you want to pay twice the price for a set of pads that will do the same job?
