There nothing wrong with the sliding two pot tockios as long as they are kept clean. That includes the slides (which a lot of people forget about).
The bouncy bits seem to make them appear crap!

I strip and service mine once a year and get a quick crud clear every 2k ish (the brake dust seems to be attracted to the pistons).

The rear is worth doing also as it's a right PITA to do on curvys and pointies if seized.

Pads wise either EBC gg/ road or hh will be fine for the road (I prefer road and got 12k before I wore them a fair way and got rid, but that was over 3 different sets of discs)

Between most the people that have responded to this thread we've probably rebuilt about 200 sets
