I have just brought some of these and I am very happy with them - Shimano XT M785 Disc Brake - Have had a quick look though and i can see what replacement pads I should buy. Could someone please advise shimano reference (or a source where I can find it).
Also are Shimano pads recommended or are third party ones just as good?

Superstar pads are highly rated within in this forum. The pad design you want is labelled 'S5'. These don't come with the Ice-tech cooling fins though.

The original equipment Shimano ones are listed as so:

Finned Resin - http://www.madison.co.uk/productinfo.as ... 8J7%209801
Standard Metal - http://www.madison.co.uk/productinfo.as ... 8JZ%209802
Standard Resin - http://www.madison.co.uk/productinfo.as ... 8J7%2098030 -
Also try uberbikecomponents sintered. Similar to Superstar (no Haribo) but I like their pads so far. I've also tried discobrakes semi-metallic in my M785's and they were awful!0
