Does any body know if juicy breaks come with sintered or organic pad material as the original fitment?

My rear pads gave out at the weekend and I'm very happy with the life/performance so just want to do a like for like swap.

Thanks.

    The aftermarket Juicy pads are way, way better than the OE pads.

    Sintered will still last longer though.

    not always as if used in the dry they can over heat.

    wet conditions sintered
    dry organic

    as a basic rule of thumb.
