hey hey,

 

thanks... btw where do u stay? i'll try to make it on sat lar, see how it goes u hav my number right?

 

mm...regarding the ferrodo brake pads, are they better than stock pads? the uk guys seem to recommend ebc pads, but i heard those pads have rocketsky price, i don't do racing so i guess i wldn't need that good pads and heard from tealeaf they eat your rotors, so do ferrodo eat rotors too?

 

heh sorry for so many qns, and thanks for ur willingness to help us

the brake pads that we normally use are semi-sintered or fully sintered. fully sintered pads are said to be da best however u have to know good braking technics in order to fully utilize its capabilities.

 

i do agree based on articles on the net dat brake pads will eat into the rotors no matter wat the brand. however the extent of brake rotor wear is very subjective. we must understand that when brake pads are tested, most of them are tested on the tracks by professional racers with years of experience. the amout of hard braking they do is no match for our daily "soft" braking. as such we shouldnt worry too much about the wear rate or the rotor.

ferrodo pads and vesrah are the so called standard ones most riders choose. ebc is also good although they may be slightly higher priced. unless of course u wana choose the 9 bux pads sold at LAB. i dun really know wats the brand of the stock pads used on our bikes however i do know for sure dat the aftermarket ones are definitely better off than original.

 

maybe u should read up on the performance of the pad on different road conditions like rain, cold weather, high temp etc. all this factors affect the pads performance. then again for our kind of climate, its more like a compromise. know da characteristics of the pads ure using and it definitely will make u wiser when on da road.
