New Brake Pads

Dawesy92

Right so come to the conclusion I need some new pads for my Avid elixir R brakes, worked out that I could do with using sintered pads but my question is what brand do I go for? As reading the reviews and im not getting anywhere!!

Looked a superstar, nukeproof, goodride and a few others but cant decided, what would you guys recommend?

Superstar come with Haribo.

That is one thing thats tempting me to buy superstar ones!!

Nothing wrong with some haribo!!

What about any other brand for pads that are good? Or would you reccomend superstar?

I use SS, as do most other people I ride with. They are cheap, they work, I like Haribo.

I've used the Superstar, Avid, Hope, Shimano, Clarks, Uberbike, Goodridge, A2Z and Formula sintered pads and TBH when they're bedded in properly they all work well so I just buy the Superstar's since they are the cheapest and that little bit of Haribo is always nice.

+1, I find them very good.

+1 best of both (organic/sintered) worlds, bad enough changing tyres for weather without changing pads as well!
