Si-man Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Look like the old megamo short pads, just in a reddy colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCOTTY___ Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Look like the old megamo short pads, just in a reddy colourMonty Click Me And Coust Click Me(Scroll down) Pads are available in small backings... Doesnt mean that there the same as the old megamo pads..The colour of the pads indicates that the compund is differant which means Softer Or Harder compounds.. Which means Ware Rate... Which means Brake setup... Which means brake preformance.Hope this helps...Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 (edited) The colour of the pads indicates that the compund is differant which means Softer Or Harder compounds.. Which means Ware Rate... Which means Brake setup... Which means brake preformance.Colour of the pads has nothing to do with the compound of the material.The material is being made by tensile, but the backings are from magura. 3.5mm in length.Would think they would be alot cheaper than £20 aswell.

ogre Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Why would you want a smaller pad, surely the bigger the better, doesn't take a genious to work out a bigger surface area = more stoppping power, or does it? *calls steven hawking, and then asks if he runs a hope 6 on his wheelchair for gigles* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janson Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 bigger area does not equal more friction.longer pads tend to not round off as fast as short ones. i have never run short ones though, so i can't say i know anything else than long pads are nice.
