Seem pricey. I'll ask my mate if he has any cheaper if you want?

Organic or sintered doesn't matter, it's personal preference.

Nah not really, less fade apparently but it's a moot point. Difference is the HH bite harder at first. Total power is higher but that's not really noticeable.

I believe the phrase is moo point. As in a cow goes moo and no one should listen to a cow. Moo Point Sorry I am bored

Either is acceptable, moot means insignificant.

Moot-----Old English meeting place.
So we could convene a meeting to discuss the issue and being thoroughly modern people we could set up a sub group to further enhance its capabilities and,moving forward,all sing from the same hymm sheet.
By this time the pads will be worn out and damage the discs.We should have just changed them earlier.
