Hi there,Mate of mine has just bought a GT from Halfords and it had a fault with the Hayes Sole brakes fitted,Needed a new seal and said it would take to long to get a replacment.They have changed both brakes to Bikehut items which he is not to happy about.Do any of you know what these are like and who makes them ? From what i can see they look like Quad but could be wrong just worried about spare pads etc thanks

they are a lot better than the Soles.
they are rebadged Diatec sports."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

I've fitted them on mine. Excellent brakes. Proper powerful
Pads are easy enough to come by on fleabay/online bike shops. They are exactly the same as diatech pads and brakes. Got my last lot of pads from Woolyhatshop...tenner for 4. Even made up my own bleeding kit.0 -

correct or the Anchors and they also the same as some Hayes.
Have a look on EBC's webby as they have a PDF with the shapes and the names."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
