Ive used EBC sintered before and liked them. Never heard of the other brand myself.

Never heard of Goldfren or are they the OEM make? Either way OEM are my favourites. Being a tight git though I normally go for EBCs but not HHs as I never get enough heat in them whilst commuting to enjoy them at their best. So I guess I best vote EBC standard?

I have used Goldfren sintered pads in the past and found them to be pretty good, much better than oem and mildly better than ebc organics, cost about the same as ebc organics.

o mighty mod, could you please revise no.3 poll Goldfren Sintered to EBC Sintered?

:notworthy:

What are you currently using?
How have you liked them?
Would you consider cost, pad & disc life, performance when hot, or performace when cold to be the most important features?

I have swapped mine over to EBC Sintered pads. They work well for me straight from the off (although i do have Wavey discs aswell). I also have used them a bit on the track and they are pretty awesome with some decent heat in them.
They do seem to wear quickly as i haven't had them on that long! (Maybe it's the way i ride?!) I don't think i'd go back to standard ones now though.

EBC sintered, dont know why but they do seem to give that extra bite and i'd probably replace them with another set

EBC HH on the front.
I voted for the bottom option, as assumed you meant ebc sintered
