They're a bit pricey I know that much! Doesn't answer your question. Have you got a gsxr front end? If so, there are a lot of recommendations on Gixerjunkies for SBS road excell pads. A lot cheaper than brembo

Re: Brembo sintered brake pads
I use them on the Aprilia, more bite and a bit more power than standard ones. mind I've also fitted new (Black Shaddow) rotors at the same time.
Bit pricey, but cheaper than oem. |

Re: Brembo sintered brake pads
Yes I have a GSXR (K7) front end. I just noticed HG had them on offer on their eBay website at £12.49 a set.
Just ordered 2 x sets for the front and 1 x rear pad. Thanks guys. Linky |

Re: Brembo sintered brake pad opinions?
I know....it says £12.49 or best offer, I tried offers up to and including £12, at which point, I ran out of offers and couldn't make another one for 30 days.....so I ended up paying the full hit lol

Re: Brembo sintered brake pad opinions?
I used Brembo sintered on the SV last year. I went through them in like 4000 miles ish.
Good pads just wish they lasted a bit longer! |
