Default EBC HH pads

Just fitted EBC HH pads to my baby. The original pads still had some meat on them but they were starting to feel really wooden, they still stopped the bike ok, but needed more pressure on the lever than in the past.

The EBC's have so much more bite and feel. Just a slight touch on the lever brings instant reaction. Still plenty of control, so they won't be a liabiility in the wet.

Recommended.

John

I just ordered a set, as used by minitwins teams so can't be bad.

Improved for me too, though I question the soft stuff they use - guess they wont last so long.

How much and where from?

Will they be ok for the rear, or is it something i'd be best doing to both front and rear?

Funny, I've not found that .

Been through 6 sets now and only one wasn't EBC HH's and the discs are fine, did you have a dragging caliper or something?
