What do you use the bike for?

Are you an all weather/year rider?

How many miles do you do?

Afternoon all.

EBC HH work well, (I've sold thousands) & what's more they're usually cheaper the Carbon Lorraines.

Cheers.

They will eat your discs for breakfast mind ;) I like the normal ?green? pads in my road bike, they are kind to the discs too 8)

Never seen you ride, but chances are you will never NEED any more than some greens 8)

HH's ate my discs in about 20k. The Carbonne lorrianes however have identical stopping power (I cant tell the difference anyhow and i have done over 50k on my bike) and are much kinder to the discs.

Id go for the carbone lorraines (Std compound...SK3 or something iirc)

Re: which brake pads
 
2 pairs of honda pads are the same as 1 pair of EBC or Carbonne lorrianes

are the honda ones going to be kind to my discs?

:confused:

Hein Gericke pads used to be re-badged Carbone Lorraines. Not sure if they still are. I always used those and they were good.
