Whats the difference between
Sintered, Organic & normal brake pads?

Which are best?

When we wake up in the morning, we have two simple choices. Go back to sleep and dream, or RIDE.

The choice is yours...

    Sintered pads have added metal shaving content (usually copper) last longer & are better for adverse (UK) weather conditions
    Resin pads are a softer compound to create less heat, but wear quickly in adverse weather conditions
