if i am not wrong, HKL at Alexandra also sells EBC...

 

But honestly... if u wan EBC for ur rear calipers, dont get the HH ones... It will lock ur rear and cause fishtail... Wont wan that when ya playing at corners... Moreover... it will eat ur rotor real fast...

 

BTW,

i went to motoworld... they no longer take in AP pads.

 

:cry:

 

I dont even have the chance to try...

Actually HH is a standard rather than unit for perforamce.....Like $15 Gold Fren and $18 SBS all are HH rated....So how is the performace compare to sintered HH that cost fews times more??

I think my GG rated Vesrah bite more aggrasively than those cheap "HH"...

THose who think using HH will lock ur rear..I would say is about control...Some like to feather their brakes and it will bite like no tmr....Some like to use more force to modulate their braking progress.....

I would say is all about personal opinion..

 

Pad Friction levels are designated by the alphabet system... the further down the alphabet the higher the friction level and double letters is stronger than single letter designations (for example: GG has stronger friction than G rating).

Cause mine original is Nissin brake pads n GG rated, i found the performance is very good. :thumb: So thats y Im try to looking for it. N other reason is GG rated "Eat" rotor lesser than HH , am I right ? :confused:

Actally u r wrong like I said GG and HH are just stardard. I not sure why many of us actaully think that it is perforamce rating.....

If it is really the case then just get those HH rated $15 pads....Not poing getting sintered that cost a few times more than those organic pads....

Organic or kelver pads are softer than sintered which consist of diff metals that are pressed together.....That y they are more friendly than rotors.....But they do suffer from brake fade at very high speed....

Any other alternative is using semi metallic pads...

Is something like mineral oil,semi syn and fully syn oil. Even they all passed the same standard but they are still diff from each other...

 

Nissin ones I dont think so cos I never see them before or u can get from the bike agent....Like FJT ... I guess u r using OEM pads from ur new bike.....Just stick to ur burget...If only at singapore rd and not speed demon...Normal pads would do u just fine......

Pads reviews....

DP, EBC and Vesrah.....Scored then same point....Then why I must pay more than 50% or more for the pads that offer same perfromace???

Another cheap and good pads are ferrodo plantium.....They are cheap and damn good....But I cant find them already....Mind u not those LAB ferredo formula pads...those are lousy.....
